[Fists] Logging programs?

I have been using XMLog (http://www.xmlog.com) for the last couple of
months. It performs all the basic logging functions well, but there are a
few things I don't like about it:

1. There's no way to record the end of a QSO, so you can't tell how long a
QSO lasted.
2. I haven't quite figured out how to search for a particular QSO. The
procedure seems kind of convoluted to me.

You can't beat the price, though. It's free!

73!
