At line 271

LINE=`$GREP "$word" $MSGFILE`

replace with

LINE=`$GREP "$word" $MSGFILE | $TAIL -10`


You've probably got many NOTICE/WARNING messages
in your syslog file.  That'll catch just the last
10 messages.

Also, to get rid of of repetitive warnings about
these messages you can either rotate the syslog or
change NOTICE for nOTICE and WARNING ro wARNING.
