Default Can connect but ... Bearshare Ultrapeers suck??

Hi,

Did see one mention of Bearshare-related issues/problems in the forum, but not exactly this.

Can connect just fine at first. I have been using various LW versions for 2yrs or so, now on 4.0.7

Problem is, over time (<1hr I would guess) all my ultrapeer connections become Bearshare and the
stats say Dropped (I/O): >90%/0%, only for these Bearshare ultrapeers.
Stats are typically ~5%/0% for LimeWire ultrapeers.
Naturally this means practically no search results or downloads.

Are these hostile servers (I saw something about T3's mentioned elsewhere) that are trying to
slow down or hijack the network?

Should I copy the IP address of these Bearshare servers into Tools/Options/Filters/Hosts to filter them out ??

other ideas?

Thanks!

James
