snort is awesome, i've only tried it on linux systems, so i cant comment on
that part of your question. for better log parsing, i reccommend using
snortsnarf from http://www.silicondefense.com/software/snortsnarf/ and the
snort_stat script sometimes available from http://xanadu.incident.org/snort/
but it's down a lot and may have moved
