In my opinion LEECH and LEACH could both be used, but LEECH is more appropriate/widely accepted.
LEECH: A person who clings to another for personal gain.
Google slightly backs up my opinion, 113 results for "leaching files", and 1,580 results for "leeching files".
But more impressively,
"leachers" - 38,500 results.
"leechers" - 9,550,000 results.
I think the proof is in the pudding, even a grammar nazi can be wrong!
But I said leechers was the correct term. You
FAIL. </3
