software bandwidth limiter

I want to get a software bandwidth limiter. I have looked everywhere but I have no idea where to begin. I've looked at proxy programs and ICS programs but nothing is what I am looking for.

When I download torrent files at night, I just leave the BitTorrent program running because I don't care at night, but durring the day my family uses the internet, so I need to cut my upload in half to allow them to surf the web at a comfortable rate. I just need something that will allow me to limit the upload speeds. Can anyone please help me out?

I also have a Linksys BEFSR41 cable/dsl router if that has some sort of option for this too?

Thanks.

As you use "torrents" why not just use the special edition that contains a bandwidth limiter of sorts, just select a lower connection than you have and then the program only allows a low upload.

Or try this program, I installed it, and it works for me...

Take control of your network traffic bandwidth. Limit the data rates of all traffic flowing through your server. No client software needed. Filter based on IP address, protocol, port, network adapter and direction.

Yes it has a 30 day trial, then your on your own.

Or

Use this search engine, I have already inserted "bandwidth" it has many programs, however some will not be relevent.
