I keep getting bad piece errors, which wouldn't
normally be too bad, but in g3 I currently have 99.98%
of a torrent, but it's stuck on one piece that keeps
failing hash check, and I have no clue why. Here's a
sample of the message recieved:

[something.torrent] - Piece 3729 from ***.***.***.***
failed hash check, re-downloading it

I checked to make sure. It's always piece 3729, and
I've gotten it 81 times so far, from at least 20-30
different IP's. It's banned 4 people so far because of
this. I normally wouldn't mind this too much, but since
it never gets that piece, it never completes the file,
which kinda defeats the purpose of downloading stuff.

    It may be because of a word filter like Cybersitter. This
    frequently happens with my childrens computers. It finds
    "naughty" words where they don't exist.
