Win/USB nmea logging programs

Any free nmea logging programs for modern Windows out there? I used
to have a simple program that run under win nt 3.51 on an old laptop,
but that machine has finally died. No more Hyperterminal and I only
have USB ports on the replacement.

Thanks...

Hyperterminal still exists in Windows. Better to use a 'real' terminal
program like TeraTerm (freeware). Hyperterminal will sometimes refuse to
open a com port when data is coming in already.

As for the USB part: use a decent (aka not the cheapest) serial-USB
converter.
