limit bandwidth with squid or other application

Folks:
I am having a hard time with some of my users. I have a few users who need to upload large blocks of images and videos to a 3rd party, but the application doesn't allow control over the upstream and down stream. When a user uploads a file, the line gets saturated.

I was thinking that I could learn Squid and hope I would be able to limit the bandwidth to a particular IP address, or by an TCP/UDP port #.

Does anyone know if I can deploy Squid to solve my issue? If not does anyone know of a application/product that will server my deployment or issue?

thank you very much - Cheers!!!

I don't think Squid addresses the issue you are having.

You CAN do this with QoS, as a matter of fact, i JUST did this like two days ago.
