Lexxington Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I'm trying to test an idea to improve the auto-ban system in uTorrent but the torrents I was using have been taken off their trackers.If anyone knows of some well poisoned torrents, or even not so well poisoned torrents where you are getting quite a few hash-fails, please PM me the links to my e-mail address.BTW, preferably not too huge. Single or muliple files are fine.TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexxington Posted June 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Nobody has sent any so far.There must be a lot out there judging by the amount of posts complaining about it on this forum over the past few months. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Most public TV/movie torrents are poisoned I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevluvin Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 here is a UK fansub tracker for their anime I was having lots of ban's reported mostly on new releases untill I downloaded a peerguardian ip filter 1-2 months ago now I do still see 1-2 ban's but since I use wireless for this machine I can't rule out wireless as the culprit (the connection does drop) or maybe the fact that I live on the west coast (washington usa) and most dl'ers for this tracker should be in the UKhttp://lime-anime.com/torrent.htmlmain site that lists the newest downloads in orderhttp://lime-anime.com I beleve this tracker is legal as the rights to these anime series are have not been bought from japan for redistribution in the UK or USA (here is a link to currant USA redistributions that need to be avoided http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime-list.php?licensed=1&sort=title&showT=1&showM=1&showO=1&showN=1&showS=1 if you live in the USA) as far as I know, but the fansubs are over the air recordings that have had a translated subtitle added by this fansubbing group. I only download their fansubbed tv series not anything to do with dvd just to be on the safe side cause I live in the usa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexxington Posted June 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Hi chevluvin,I tried a few of those most recent anime torrents at random but got no hash-fails. But, thanks for trying to help anyway. Still no links e-mailed from anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudolfo2 Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 I'm trying to test an idea to improve the auto-ban system in uTorrent but the torrents I was using have been taken off their trackers.If anyone knows of some well poisoned torrents, or even not so well poisoned torrents where you are getting quite a few hash-fails, please PM me the links to my e-mail address.BTW, preferably not too huge. Single or muliple files are fine.TIA.Try this weeks episode of Sopranos ( eztv/mininova).I've downloded the epiosode with 209 hash failes and over 20 banned IPs.

Lexxington Posted June 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Thanks rudolfo2.I'm not 100% sure of which one to test as there are a lot! Presumably the 3500 seed one? Anyway, sent you an e-mail via PM to request a direct link to it.Reason I'm replying here, is that again like schnurlos, your PM went straight to the junk filter so perhaps mine will too.EDIT:OK, I'm obviously on the right one as I got a few hash-fails here, 10 in total and 1 bannned IP. Also, I deliberately let a PG2 blocked IP in as a test, which accounts for 3 hash-fails alone.FYI, and as a non-tech aside, if you use Peer Guardian 2 with the p2p lists you will find those hash-fails decrease dramatically. In this particular swarm are lots and LOTS of 38.100.x.y IPs deliberately corrupting the torrent. That's why I only got 10 hash-fails and so few bans, compared to your 200 or so presumably.Perhaps that may explain schnurlos's hash-fails too?Here's an amusing statistic:One 38.100.x.y involved in 3 hash-fails, and data downloaded from them... 48 kb!!! LMFAOIf that's not deliberate I don't know what is Anyway, I have a good copy to test with now, and lots of data to verify.Thank you very much for taking the time to help rudolfo2.Cheers.

Switeck Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 I consider the entire 38.x.x.x block suspect.I haven't seen anything good out of it on file-sharing networks -- only fakes, spammers, and monitoring apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
