Could someone please post a good filter set to clear this garbage out & prevent reoccurance?

you need to find the common element between each piece of sporge and filter based on it. I believe kill filters can be setup based on that criteria that will automatically kill anything the filter catches.

Thanks dengle,

But, I know how the filters work.

The sporge that has been plaguing the newsgroups of interest is name based, multilple names. It seems that the offender is drawing from a library of proper names. The file size varies.

I'm just wondering if anyone has come up with an effective filter set already.
