Actually thinking about this liblognorm might be useful. It comes with
a program call "normalizer".  You'll need to create the rulebase
files/rules.  That'll be the tricky part.

If you do create good rulebase/rules, let me know. I'd like to have a
copy :)

So I have several gigs of webnonsense logs and I am trying to 
construct a timeline of malware infection as it spreads from IP to 
IP.  I already know what the malicious URLs look like so that's
not the issue.  I want to be able to build a timeline of activity
to describe the first moment a computer was infected and I want to 
illustrate when the phone home traffic hops from domain to domain.

I can sort of do it with some artful use of grep and excel, but
it's hard to make that scale to more than a small sample of the
logs.  I fed it to a trial copy of Splunk and it exploded while
giving me nothing useful.  Are there any tools out there that I can
use for this?  I don't want to pay money for it because it's a
one-off, but so far nothing can compete with good ol grep
