Version: NetLimiter 1.3
Pros: It does a good job, you can monitor and limit single programs, which is great, esp. when trying to find adware or keyloggers etc!
Cons: Doesnt blend with windows. When limiting the actual bandwidth the program uses flucuates much more then if you didnt limit it. Eg, no limit around 8-12kb/s, but limit to say 8kb/s then it flucuates around 3-10kb/s

"Keeps network traffic under control"
Pros: When sharing a DSL network with torrent users, this software kept everybody happy.
Cons: A password feature would be nice so the kids don't keep changing what I've set for them.

Version: NetLimiter 1.3
"Simple, easy, and works perfect..."
Pros: Easy to keep monitor of your application net traffic. You can set upload/download limits per application (very useful for P2P users with a slow upload connection), so your uploads won't clog your entire net traffic. It can chart total in/out traffic, schedule netlimits, and check your traffic history.
Cons: Is not freeware. Some software capatibility issues. Had very serious problems with some software such as Xfire, which in the past used LSPs (latest Xfire no longer uses this and is now capatible with Netlimiter). Other than this, the program is perfect.
