What are the worst "bandwidth hogs"?

My office is regularly using up our entire 1.5 Mbps DSL line.  I've already sent an email to the office asking everyone to limit their use of streaming audio and video, especially during the peak hours.  What other activities can be "bandwidth hogs" in a typical office?  FTP?  Exchange? (We use a third-party for Exchange.)  Other activities?

Thanks

A buddy mentioned P2P apps.  I wasn't sure what he meant.  Is he talking about a VNC-based service like GoToMyPC?  We have a few folks that use GoToMyPC.  What about BitTorrent?
