Hi there, I'm using Peer Guardian for about 3 weeks now, and now I realised that the logs are kept in the Library. Every single log has the size of at least 20 MB! This means there are about 600 MB log-data in the library, still growing. Can the logs be trashed or do I have to keep them for some reason? If they can be trashed, why is this not done automatically?
