Yes, it sure is. BearShare 3.0.0 will give up much more easily.
If the source returns "not found", or it times out or refuses the connection too much then the source is trimmed from the list and will not be contacted.
In addition, BearShare will attempt to establish one connection per IP address at most when downloading files. If you are using BearShare to get multiple files from the same host, it will interleave blocked requests over a single keep-alive connection.
I would also like to point out that BearShare 3 supports full bandwidth controls, including the ability to limit hosts, uploads, downloads, and overall bandwidth.
