We've had good luck here with the Packeteer packetshaper 6500.

We use it mainly to control [not block] music download traffic.

Anybody tried nmap against a Packet Shaper recently? I tried it against
a box here which is no longer in service (not the 6500 model), and the
result isn't exactly reassuring.

Try adding some traffic classes which match connections to the local
box from non-trusted locations, and set the policy to deny.
