Notes:
After you clear a log, only new events will appear in the log.
If you select Do not overwrite events (clear log manually) in the Properties
dialog box of an active log, you must periodically clear the System Log when the
log reaches a certain size or when a message notifies you that the log is full.
You must delete archived logs. These logs cannot be cleared.
