[ASTRO] That flood of an AVI just recently
The flood of a 31-part DiVX AVI movie passed through my machine
and got filtered off into a temporary location because it didn't have the "ASTRO" header. but even so, I couldn't read it because at least 2 out of 31 parts hadn't made it to my newsserver. Did anyone get the whole lot, and was it worth the effort? -- Aidan Karley, Aberdeen, Scotland Written at Thu, 17 May 2007 11:43 +0100, but posted later. 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 |

Did anyone get the whole lot, and was it worth the effort? I doubt it. Idiots have posted massive posts like this before and I've not yet seen one worth it. Usually they are something they could have posted the URL instead saving us all a lot of trouble. My news server didn't even carry it. Like you I leave my filter on but after seeing your post I checked and nothing but a few comments, none positive. Usenet replayer didn't pick it up either I see. Any sane person would post a long video like that to You Tube or one of the other video sites and post the URL rather than take up our bandwidth. At 31 parts assuming say 300K per segment that would be nearly 10 megabytes. My server only allocates that for this entire group. If it hadn't of pitched it I'd have missed the posts of others. Good thing it did! Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct. Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh". |

Did anyone get the whole lot, and was it worth the effort? I got it twice, once in one avi file, and once in a rar file split up into parts. Both were complete, and not worth watching.

They became aware when they heard a faint voice saying "we're still open". |
