Is it possible to limit the bandwidth available to either specific shared folders or to all shared folders on a windows 7 pc?

A problem I discovered today is that my 10mbps LAN connection is maxed out on things being copied from a shared folder...
leaving insufficient bandwidth to run anything else, such as NWN or Firefox.

Yet another windows short sightedness.. imho.
