In that regard (making it session bound) I could imagine a small 
"erase/create a new statistics file" command/script* in the startup folder 
(which you than append to in the scripts).  Perhaps not perfect, but 
/should/ give you a clean slate every time.

*would even allow you to make some "last X sessions" log-file stack ...

Isn't that often the case ?   All the "fun stuff" only known by a few, who, 
more often than not, stumbled over it by those themselves ?


Something just occured to me : If the logfile should really disappear on its 
own why not create a ramdisk and put the logfile on it ?
