Extremely High Data Transfer

See the Shoutcast log entry below. A client connection transferred 2GB+ of data in 19 minutes (and appears to be spoofing the user agent, as "Chrome" and "Safari" are both listed in the same user agent string). This has been happening sporadically since I installed Shoutcast a week ago. Considering I'm on Amazon EC2 and paying per GB for outbound data transfer, this is frustrating. I'm streaming at 96k, so I can't even imagine how this much data transfer would be possible.

Obviously this is malicious behavior. Other than blocking IPs that do this stuff, is there anything in the Shoutcast config to deal with this?

Thanks,
Mike
