Log Analysis for October.
Ran weekly and posted on the Members Only page. When the web site was moved to the new server due to the virus problem, we lost access to the log files for the web site. Logs were reset approximately October 10. Old and new logs were combined to arrive at this month's figures. User sessions are down again (4%) at 18,612 but web page views are back up to near August levels at 90,814.

3rd Quarter 2001 - Quarterly figures for user sessions rose 16% from 2nd Quarter '01 levels for page views, but decreased by 2% for users. This is probably due to the attack on America on September 11th. 3rd Quarter '01 usage increased 47% over 3rd Quarter '00.

2000 Yearly Figures show an outstanding 204,689 users requesting 667,511 pages as compared to 100,426 users requesting 310,586 pages in 1999. This is a 101% increase in users and a 111% increase in page views over 1999.
