Different programs use different ports.

Unfortunately most of them can use port 80 (http) to get their stuff. There are more intelligent solutions out there but they are quite expensive.

can you give us a scale of the network size you are on? It is easy for home networks, but I think I could help more if we narrow down the field a bit

bandwidth limiting would be the easiest thing.

EDIT: and blocking all the major p2p ports..unless your peoples know what they're doing in which case that will do jack shat:)
