Hi guys, any ideas on this one:

several hundred users access the internet via a single 2Mb connection. This usually isn't a problem however when a user downloads a large file it kills the internet connection available to the rest of the users, the situation can get rediculous if two or three users are downloading files.

I was hoping there may be a download limit in group policy or maybe some third party application available.

Thanks
Andy

I'm assuming you have a router and/or firewall between your 2Mb connection and your company's LAN correct? Most of the time, one of those two devices should be able to do bandwidth throttling.
