Read the documentation.  

A search for LogListPlot (in Index) in the online documentation would have
lead you to one of the standard packages.  As you read through the help
file, you can see that you need to load the package in order to access the
function.

Another method might be to read through past posts to this newsgroup, as
this question tends to come up quite a lot.

Note that you can also 

	ListPlot[Log[10, data]];

to get your data on log axes, but the labelling will be wrong.  You can roll
your own Ticks (search for Ticks) or use the function LogTicks (also in
Graphics`Graphics`).

Regards,

Dave.
