The even log is exactly what it sounds like. A log of events that's pasted in a folder to aid in troubleshooting. Most folks have absolutely no reason for saving these logs, plus it gets filled up rather quickly. Try it out -
From home screen hold down "alt" and type in "lglg". When the log appears hit the BB key, and select "clear log", then confim the deletion. Now open your browser and close it. Bam, like 200 entries. I clear my log about 5 times a day and usually get about half an mb of memory back, so for those of you who have never done it you might want to check your application memory before you clear the log for the first time to see how much memory you free up.
And for the other claim... I'm no expert, but in another thread a couple of CB mods were saying that minus a 3rd party app, there's no way to stop the device from logging the events. According to them, hiding the log doesn't prevent the events from being recorded, and actually uses more memory (although minutely) because it's creating another shortcut to find the log.
With all of this in mind, I'll be downloading this app at the conclusion of this posting, because I'm all for anything that will help me control my OCD!
