SABnzbd Forums

I recently encountered a different kind of spam in usnet downloads. Unline password protecting the rars, these guys have now started password protecting a rar and then compressing that rar to another rar file. This way Sab is not able to find that it is spam, because the outer rar is not password protected, while the inner one is.

So if a filter could be provided that would check for the outer rar contents and if it finds another rar in it, it could gracefully exit therey by not wasting bandwidth.

SABnzbd already detects some of the trickery used by these scumbags.
Obviously they will come up with new tricks.
You do have to enable detection of encryption in Config->Switches.
