Block Host - Helpful or Futile?

I know enough to not download a 42.1Kb file thanks to forum posts.

When very small files appear in a search, does it do any good to block them? Or, are they like spammers who just evolve into a new address and continue to show up?

wondering why

You could block them or pop the IP into your Host filter...Or better still follow Aarons advice in this thread and download his full Hostile list...
