Under linux I use logrotate, which copies the contents of the logfiles, compresses it, creates an empty logfile and restarts apache. All the old logs (older than one week for example) are deleted. I don't know if such a tool exists on Windows, but I think it does; or if not, it couldn't be hard to write one :)

Hello,
these files are contents of the IIS, and can be hacked many ways. That's why bad people try to "download" these to hack an IIS based web server. As far as I know you can't do anything against it...
