Another (better?) way
Authored by: stevebr on Jun 14, '06 08:18:57PM

Nick, you already have the scripted solution, but I'll make the following suggestion:

1) Use Azereus instead of the official BT client.
2) Install & set up the Azereus plugin called "Speed Scheduler." Azereus has a plugin manager (available in the "Plugins" menu) that will assist you in installation and configuration.

Speed Scheduler may be exactly the thing you are looking for. It's much more flexible than an on|off switch like you can get with "Tell application x to quit". I use it adjust allocated bandwidth (upstream and downstream independent of one another) with a schedule that includes different allocations for typical working hours, overnight, and weekends. You can also set either upstream or downstream bandwidth to zero in any schedule, which should solve your initial problem.
