    Huge server logs keep killing .htpasswd - any advice??

    Everytime I have a big traffic day, a fuckin' 500mb+ log file is generated and then .htpasswd gets wiped out when someone signs up because I go over my disk quota. I know I could simply upgrade my server, but I normally have at least 400mb free so it seems like a waste at this point.

    I suppose I could turn off my server-side stats, but that just sucks ...

    any other ideas?

    Also - does anyone have ICQ for RCN support???

    Thanks,

    -Phil
