Daily Counter 1.1 IP logging

hello,
I installed the daily counter 1.1 a while back and I may not have done something correctly because a) ip logging only picks up 1-3 IPs at a time. I assume it refreshes the txt file after a day but during a 30 minute span, one IP is replaced by another. b)Visitors today changes from 1 to 13 after refreshing the page.

If anyone would have a solution or could offer advice to work thru this please post here.

By the way, this is one hell of a site and the info on it is amazing. I know nothing of PHP and this makes it so painless.

cheers,
tom
