Newsbin downloading password protected files

Postby Galvin » Thu Jan 30, 2014 8:06 pm

I have the option to not download files that have a password. Several times this has failed. Is there a bug with this feature?

PM me some examples.

It's a race. I add code to detect it and the spammers change how they post. 6.51B3 has some beefed up defenses against tripple RAR'd sets.

There are sites that post passwords to save Newsbin users a lot of trouble and are free. I can private message you the site and it requires no donations but if the users of the site want to donate they can freely. I can also upload my rarpassword file that is in My Newsbin directory. Just trying to help a great crew and beat the spammers.
Let me know either way.
Thank you all greatly for adding the password file feature!
