Hi Marc!

Gigo is known to be a dupe catapult since many years. Therefore it's
recommended to get rid of it or to use it only when you are not feeding any
other system. When using Squish you have some chances to catch real dupes
and ignore most false ones (AFAIR they are called nopes). Using any other
tosser you're out of luck.

I don't believe you will be very successfull. Instead of wasting to much
time with Gigo you might have a look at Fidogate. You should be able to
find binaries for Linux, BSD, OS/2 and Win* (and complete source code).
