Grep logs on the fly

Hi,

We use an application that is dumping logs to a file on disk. However, this is dumping very verbosely and there is no method of turning down the logging level. We need to remove certain contents from these before they are commited to disk.

Has anybody got any ideas how I can do this using grep maybe? This will have to run continually as long as the application runs.

Thanks
