Hi

Well if your PC is fast enough to run a proxy
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Bandwidth-Limiting-HOWTO/

Its nice and simple to follow through...

I tried bandwidth limiting once -- it began to get annoying when u could 
only download at 10Kb/s when you are the only person using the DSL 
connection. But that is my oppinion, Dial up might be different...

cheers
