Streamripper Warning

[Dgiant]

Just wanted to give out an FYI, Ive only been up a couple days but already picked up a stream ripper. I thought at first he was just an active listener, login came back as winamp 2.88, I kicked him every few hours but he was back on in under 3 seconds.After 23 hours I had to ban him on suspicion alone. Now Im getting ping slammed. -

Hopefully none of you will get stuck with this guy.

Note: some people have winamp set to repeat, if you kick them then they will come back, so this is not a good way to tell if someone is streamripping.

BINGO

why are some people so ban happy, anyway?

I suppose it has to do with some of the FUD going around lately. What with the RIAA, to people DoS'ing this stuff just get's old.
