In case of failure, it can notify you via e-mail, relaunch the corresponding application or restart the Mac.

  • improved password security
  • some software creates logfiles that aren't detected when added to the KIU Weblog folder, even though they contain plain text. To remedy this, simply rename of the alias to make it end with ".log"
