    try this http://www.softperfect.com/download/

    Removed direct link to EXE file. Next time provide the link to the site so the users can have the choice to download it.
    Download the "SoftPerfect Bandwidth Manager" on the download page.

    I saw this one in another TJ thread.
    GOTO Start
    RUN: gpedit.msc
    Administrative templates
    Network
    Qos
    Limit reservable bandwidth.
    (click enable, then set the value you want as a percentage)
