In fact there is no need to check weblog it's hard work to do. We have some better ideas; You can code a server-side page (.asp, .php, .jsp etc.), You can set your page content-type as image after that you can include this to HTML page like; <img src="http://myserver.com/dyn.php" height="0" width="0"> OR <img src="http://myserver.com/dyn/" height="0" width="0"> (execute default directory index -index.php-). Also in this way you can print your server-side pages as images. If you are interested in you can check a sample webbug ASP source-code; http://ferruh.mavituna.com/article/?428 This webbug log every request and save them in a text file. Also you can add your own functions (like sending e-mail).

For example; <img src="http://yourserver.com/webbug/" width="0" height="0"> So when e-mail received you can log active IP, time etc. Also if you make some google searches about "webbug","web bug","pixeltag", you can find more info.
