I get those very frequently the day before a popular show airs.
I wish there was a setting in sonarr to only grab released episodes (like radarr has) bit it seems like blocking extensions is the way to go.
The sonarr devs keep refusing to do this because "use better trackers".
They don't understand most people can't join the top of the line trackers right away, and that using public trackers is a massive help to filling the gaps, even if they unfortunately get crappy files from time to time.
I mean, I've only gotten those from one tracker, and haven't gotten them since I've removed that one tracker. Sonarr at least recognizes it's not a media file and won't copy it to your media folder. And you can use regex filters with qBittorrent. There hasn't been a legitimate use of .arj in what, 30 years? So you won't be missing anything by filtering it.
