CouchPotato Server and Sabnzb 0.7.0 (QNAP)
Unpacking failed, archive requires a password
For some reason all of a sudden the last 3 days and about 45 movies have given me the error message referenced in the subject when handed off to SAB. I noticed that all of these messages are par2 yenc. I am sure this is the problem and am wondering what the fix is? Exclude par2 and yenc in the search criteria of CP?

Why after using CP for nearly a year does this suddenly grind my operation to a complete halt? I mean every single movie lately has produced this error.
Thanks!

Usenet has been discovered by fraudsters.
Check what's downloaded. There usually is an extra file that tells you to go to
some dubious website in order to get the password.
