Hi,

I am downloading files using ASP using the the binarywrite as below.

objStream.LoadFromFile(strAbsFile)
'-- send the stream in the response
Response.BinaryWrite(objStream.Read)

I was wondering is there any way I can control or throttle the
download?. I want to make sure that the users are not taking up too
much bandwidth while downloading the file.

Thanks for your help and time

:)

This is ftp group, you should post it to .asp or .iis general group.
Since you are streaming it out, doubt you can do much with it.

On the other hand, 3rd party solution like www.tcpdata.com does offers
throttling usage base on file extension.
