Re: what kind of moron ?

Yes, I could do that - but since it doesn't take that much longer to download a whole file versus part of it, and requires me to manually check it anyway, it's still a waste of my time.

True. I am sure someone out there could create a downloader or maybe sabnzbd could add the feature where it would test to see if you need a password to extract the files before downloading the whole thing. If so it would alert you and stop the download. That way you could choose a different release instead. Not sure if that is even possible though.

Not as easy - or satisfying - as stopping the jerk(s) responsible for this, but there are ways to get around their spam.

As suggested earlier, there are several sites that do a good job of weeding out that garbage, including Merlin, TVNZB, etc.

Your right. The thing is you waste time by doing that but I am all for stopping the person doing it still though. Just saying. I think if you ignore it sooner or later they stop. Not saying always but most of the time I would think. Still it would be awesome to be the one to stop them that is for sure!
