Win XP and Event Viewer

Not with the default. What I do is run MMC.Exe, then load in the
snap-ins you want. Save the Console, create a Shortcut to it. Then
you can configure window layout and filters, etc to your liking and
they will be retained on next use. Specifically, I set the Event logs
to only track Warnings and Errors - not really concerned about the
informationals.
