1. Overview

  InfoLog is an online time monitor for multiple services and
  communication programs.  One simple interface provides for
  launching comminication programs, monitoring current and
  total online times, and logging of connection dates and times.
  User interaction is kept to a minimum with features such as
  automatic carrier detection and monthly reset of total online
  times.  Just click and go--InfoLog does the rest!
