It's not causing me any real problems just discarding it, but any idea what it's for? what's causing it etc?

That's not trailing data, it is part of the packet. Read up at http://bnetdocs.valhallalegends.com/content.php?Section=m&Code=380

then i'm getting the wrong packet size or something given to me...

Are you seeing this data only in Ethereal/WireShark?  If so, then that's fine - it's TCP footer data, and nothing to worry about.

Nope, I'm seeing it in my client.

The packet is parsing fine, getting all the data i need out of it, and it's in the same format as shown on b.net docs. It's just allways follwed by this trailing 7 bytes.

Post a capture of the full packet, not just the 7 bytes.
