Bear share the old version did not have DHT and private torrenting or latest plugins of most of the newer p2p clients,there are many vastly better applications and do not recommend anyone to retrograde down in torrenting applications,would advise Azureus or vuze and blocklist and port-forwarding across all platforms to be secure.
There are a lot of others like Deluge that are also good, but for Linux O/S mainly which have DHT/private torrenting/and blockist updater built in without any of the Bear share risks.to be sure of your own security in p2p I recommend you get the latest updated applications for such from sourceforge.net as older versions may prove to either be less secure or have security issues that haven`t been worked out with the latest version.
