Question What's wrong with the Gnutella network?

Why do searches always return about 90-95% junk? It appears that there are a LOT of Ultrapeers (traditional servents, too?) out there which are returning 'hits' for sources which are no longer on-line. Is there some way of automatically identifying these false hits and ignoring them? Maybe some way of detecting (testing?) Ultrapeers to see if they're 'full' of it?
