I'm a little confused about this, why is it important that it knows its talking to a real Bearshare client but not important to know if you are talking to a real LimeWire client? Is it because newer bearshare clients hold information about where to get the update or updates are recieved through gnutella entirely? And isnt that considered an automated search?
