I didn't see a way to cap FTP, but the option to cap HTTP is un the 'Performance' tab in the server's properties.

Just found what will do the trick. I enabled global bandwidth throttling in IIS. I bumped it down to 5 from 1024 kb/s. I am assuming the kb/s is kiloBytes/sec not kilobits/s.
The server is running on my cable modem, and I didn't want FTP and HTTP eating into my gaming bandwidth.
If any of you see something wrong, feel free to chime in.
Thanks...

kbps is kilobits per second
KBps is kilobytes per second..

That's the way I remember it also. kilobits/sec didn't make sense in this instance, for some reason.
The global bandwidth throttling doesn't seem to be doing the trick. Do I need another service to be running in order for this to work?
