x rewrote the logging code to use less resources
x fixed a problem where the win32 pdf viewer would have trouble on
x some documents located on a web/2 server
x added support for banned hosts, banned host exceptions and banned referers
x usage: in web.cfg, locate the 'banned' entry and add hostnames/partial
x hostnames (separated by comma), to do a banned host exception, prefix
x it with "E:", example:
x x banned microsoft.com,E:os2.microsoft.com
x will permit os2.microsoft.com to connect to the server, but everything
x else on microsoft.com is denied. to ban referers, use the "R:" prefix.
