What are their exact sizes in bytes? those exact file names get no results, so
searching by size is probably the best way to track these guys down.

Also, right-click those files, select "Advanced" and "Copy Magnet Links to
Clipboard" and PM the magnets to me.


I'll run some searches and see if I can
come up with new firewall rules for those spammers.

How do you search by size? The file sizes are 19631 kb and 13209 kb.

I use a specially equipped cluster of BearShare ultrapeers to scan the whole
network for all kinds of stuff like that. One of the features common to all recent
versions of BearShare is the ability to set minimum and maximum sizes in
searches. This comes in handy when searching for many of the common worms
and spam where the size is known but the filenames are unpredictable.

Which size is which?
