The default setting is INFO, and needs to be changed to DEBUG and the client restarted (see example below).

The UI log is in C:\Documents and Settings\$userid$\Application Data\iFolder\ifolder.log

To set client UI to debug mode edit the UI.log4net file in C:\Documents and Settings\$userid$\Local Settings\Application Data\simias
