Limiting Connections Per IP /w Apache

[Dyndrilliac]

I'm using Apache v2.0.52 with OpenSSLv0.9.7d.

Is there anyway to limit connections per IP Address? I want to stop people from dling files off my server with download managers like Download Accelerator, which makes multiple connections to the file and downloads it in pieces.

I'm almost positive there's a MaxConnectionsPerClient or otherwise self-describing property buried somewhere in the config file.

The documentation says theres no such directive

I found a mod for Apache but it only works on non Windows OS's, which is of no use to me. And I'm not proficient enough in C++ to make my own mod.
