IIS 6.0 W3C Log Folder

In IIS 6.0 Manager when setting the logging properties for a web site I have selected W3C Extended Log File Format. I have selected a log file directory but would also like to be able to change the name of log folder which is auto-generated(i.e. W3SVCXXXXXXXX\exyymmdd.log).

Is it possible to change the name of the W3SVC folder? If so how?

Update:

After further research I discovered that the folder name will be W3SVC#. The # refers to the instance of that site and is also known as the identifier. The Default Web Site will always be 1 and every other site will have a random number assigned to it.

If this is true then there would be no way to choose the name of this folder. Can anyone confirm this?

The randomly generated number is also the website identifier which can be customized.
