SPAM filter won't disable

I keep getting this message in the log: HIGH - SPAM: Large RAR Inside RAR

I have all SPAM filters disabled. I restarted NB but it still produces that message.

6.42 build 2146 on Win 7 x64

Thought I fixed that. Ctrl-Y will bypass it won't it? I'll check it out again.

How do you do the ctrl-y? Where and when?

CTRL-Y is equivalent to the "bypass filters" option on the right-click menu. You can use it in a post list when adding an item to the Download list, or alternatively afterwards by selecting an already queued item in the download list and doing CTRL-y.

Yeah, sometimes I'll pause, add files to the download list I know will get filtered, Ctrl-Y them, then unpause.

I am still puzzled on how to bypass the filter checking. The second I add that NZB to the queue it gets nuked by the filter, I have no time to select it and do the CTRL-Y.

The key is to pause first.

You can also re-queue the file from the Failed Files list with the By-Pass filters option.

Ok sorry to revive this thread but I cannot get the filter to stop kicking a file I am trying to download.
I have cntl y'd myself blue in the face - yes with the "pause" but to no avail.
it keeps pushing the file back into the spam filter.

You sure it's not failing for some other reason?

What version are you using?

I am using version 6.21 build 1534.
it could be I just have never come across something which would keep showing up in the spam filter.

I'd upgrade to the latest then. Give it a try.
