I am looking for a free Windows GUI log file viewer that can display lines in reverse order with the newest lines at the top of the screen. Bonus points if it has an indication that there has been an update to the file. Open source also a plus but not required.

Thanks,

TailForWin32 is open-source, works smoothly on multiple files, and can be set to beep or send email notifications on changes. It also accepts plugins, so you can configure weirder stuff.
