Limiting abuse of internet connections

Company has a small LAN and a couple of branch offices, connecting is via
Internet but is not a VPN. Problem is they don't have unlimited bandwidth
and they can't get better than a cable connection because of geographical
location at all 3 offices..
Some employees are known to be using browser for private stuff, downloading
music, looking at sport sites etc.. Because of abuse of bandwidth they
experience loss of productivity. It slows legitimate user programs down,
using both internal and external bandwidth. Owners want it stopped.
But the branch offices use a browser to vconnect to web based program
residing on a w2003 server for legitimate business stuff (Scheduling,
billing etc..) and they use the browsers to access some of their outside
supplier's programs. Also we do remote tech support to their users with
Radmin that needs some ports to be left open.
They have a Watchguard router at their main office.
How can we prevent abuse of their bandwith by their employees?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Bob
