Ad-Watch’s ‘Event Log’ shows a list of all of the events detected by Ad-Watch, such as blocked processes, blocked registry changes or cleaning events (items cleaned by TrackSweep). To reset the Event log, you need to delete the logfile: • Close Ad-Aware. • Turn off Ad-Watch. To turn off Ad-Watch please right click the system tray icon and click the “Close Ad-Watch” selection and the select “Yes” when the confirmation window appears. • Browse to following folder: C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware 2007 (Your Drive Letter might be different) • Locate the file aweLog.xml in the folder and delete it. • Open Ad-Watch. You will now see that the Statistics and Event Log have been reset.
