Fix: occasional sincedb write issue on Windows machines (#283)

On Windows servers we occasionally get exceptions `unknown IOException: java.io.IOException: The handle is invalid` when writing to sincedb file which crashes the plugin and somehow messes with the sincedb file which results in old log files being reprocessed causing duplicates. This change eliminates those exceptions.
