Hi there.

I am sick and tired of problems with the Gnutella network and with certain clients and users in particular.

Please consider intruducing the following features in a future release of Bearshare:

(These features are already present in some clients e.g. Gnucleus)

Blocking: capability to block an entire domain, all users of a specified gnutella client, a certain connection speed and below, all users behind a firewall, to the already present block by IP

Filtering: Automatic filtering of certain file extensions (expressed as a list of file extensions to filter out) in the setup options.

Up/Downloads: Option to always drop an upload/download when the speed is below the minimum indicated for a set amount of time.

Sharing: The File Monitoring feature does not work properly, new files will occasionally not appear (especially when a file already shared is renamed instead of a new one created). New files are shared correctly, BUT DO NOT ALWAYS APPEAR in the shared files list, leaving you to wonder whether they are or not until someone starts downloading them. Make the "Rescan" function eliminate files that no longer exist from the shares list.

Sharing: Add the option to stop sharing files on an individual basis.

Also please sort out the UI problems this client has had ever since its release and those that have been introduced with 2.2.7

Thank you.
