errors.log - 4 GB !

[Fantomas]

Hello,
Today I have checked where did my free space has gone.
Microsoft antispyware log file 'errors.log' is
4 GB ! I did not find in the program where to set
size limit for this logging. Hope this bug will be
corrected asap. BTW, all log was full of the same line,
repeating thousands times:
91::ln 0:Object variable or With block variable not
set::gcasDtServ:modThreatData:Initialize::2005.01.21
22:31:40:1.0.501

176 lines per second: logging 12 hours ...
176*60*60*12 = 7.6 million error lines !

Thanks, and sorry for this. I saw the same bug on a server--it hit several
gigs before I spotted it.

FWIW, I uninstalled the beta from that machine, and later reinstalled it.
The problem hasn't recurred.
