hmm...I was just checking out a torrent, and noticed this
in my debug window. Seems really weird, I havent seen
this before....looks like it failed a hash? Someone sent
me bad data? :< I have PG2 logs of this time
period.....but other than that...I dont know, all I know is
the torrent is currently stuck @ 99.9% for some reason.

Judging by the seeds and peers, Im guessing someone
sent me some bad data, and so it fubar'd my DL?

Attached is an image of my debug window.

    Well, this happened a while back (reported it right when it
    occured).

    But, coming back here, Im guessing libtorrent and/or Arctic
    isn't built to "reject" the bad hash? It just reports it as a bad
    hash, but doesn't reject/ignore/ban the hash and/or sender of
    the bad hash?

    Would it be possible to ban or ignore the bad hash sender
    atleast until Arctic is closed/reopened? Or just ignore (and
    re-download) bad hashes without needed to manually shut off
    Arctic, delete the bad hash resume file, and then re-start
    Arctic?
