John, just delete them. They are off-topic and passworded. Most are
current, popular television program episodes.
To avoid DCMA takedowns, a group of posters have resorted to encoding
filenames, passwording the files, and posting them in off-topic groups
all over Usenet. Only members of the group get the keys, and, NO, you
can't join. Pain in the ass, but simply deleting them is a small price
to pay for all the other neat stuff available in this and all the
other groups that target your interests. (Strangely, they haven't
shown up in any of the porno groups yet, but no doubt these blokes
will start antagonizing them, too.)
