Basically the idea is to manage the uncontrolled outbound stream so we have spare - right now it's pegged 100% usage.

Has anybody figured out clever ways to accomplish this using snort or any other package?  Obviously I would prefer a 
free solution, so it would be great if Snort could do this.

Well, you could use 1.9 and shoot down the connections with
flex response.  I havn't played with it recently, but it should work
fine.  

As far as rules for the p2p traffic, if you generate me some pcap, then
I can generate you rules.
