Looking at the pieces downloaded, it was a clear pattern of "chunk of data" *nothing* "chunk of data" *nothing* "chunk of data" and so on through the whole torrent. All the chunks of data (and all the spaces in between) were the same sizes, which you never usually see in bittorrent... it's never uniform across the whole thing like that.
Ah well.. ball's in the consumer's court. I imagine some of the big trackers will figure out a way to stop their torrent sites from being infected and life will go on...
(blacklist of known dirty trackers is a good start...)
