Ahoi! Lately my Sonarr has been downloading .exe files from Lime and EZTV a lot. Someone deliberately pushes them just befor an episode airs and Sonarr happily grabs them. They don’t exexute, but still mess up my auto downloads.
Is there a way to prevent Sonarr from downloading them all together? Or at the very least re-download a proper release after noticing the exe file?
I also have private trackers as backup, but prefer public where I can contribute more by seeding to 1:100+ ratios.
Lime is the issue, I removed it for this exact reason. I mainly use usenet if I want torrents I will look for it manually. Usenet is way safer than torrents from my experience.
There’s always a fee with usenet, right? Or are there free ones?
There is a fee but it is negligible, you just need to buy on sales. As for indexers just get a one or two life times and it will pay itself over time. I only have one subscription indexer, the rest are life time.
This is last year’s black Friday sale: https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/comments/1p3ajl6/_/
Never buy usenet full price
You can get it some usenet providers for as little as $30 year which is $2.5 a month, maybe ever cheaper.
Lots of them offer trials if you just want to try it
Thanks, I’ll have a look.
