I would take about 3 hours to fetch all host names for April's log, but
here's one which has come up already:

,----[ Fragment ]
| tide505.microsoft.com - - [05/Apr/2006:15:18:18 +0100] "GET
| /Weblog/narchives.ph
| p HTTP/1.1" 200 314774 
| "http://www.google.com/search?q=povray%2Banimated+uv+map&;

Internet Explorer 6 user, utilising Google to search for animated UV maps in

Thanks again, Jim
