Hallo,

i have make one more tests.
It is not a problem of german language.

I think its the security log on a Windows 2008.
For example "4625: An account failed to log on." and "4625: Fehler beim 
Anmelden eines Kontos." ist only notice. But it should be err.

Hi Ronny, sorry for the delay, I've just now found time to look into this. The 
problem has to do with how Windows looks at Security events. If you look in 
event viewer at the events in question and check their "Level" field you will 
see it says Information. It says that for every event currently in my eventlog 
on a Server 2008 box. The Audit Success/Failure field is actually stored in the 
Keyword section. I have no idea why it is set up in this way, but right now my 
utility translates all information message into Notices.

I have a couple solutions I can think of that can help your issue, but I'll 
have to think about it some more before I select one. I can either allow users 
to edit certain events to have a particular level using the config file, or I 
can code for Failures in the Security log and cause them to have a Warn or 
Error level.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Let me know if you have any other 
suggestions.

Hi Ronny, this should now be resolved. Try version 4.4
