There's always the option, though it may be a little more complex than
you intended, of using something like Snort+FlexResp. Load up the p2p
rulesets, modify them to shut down any offending connections.

It won't exactly DoS them, but people will need to do a lot better than
just fire up Kazaa. Of course, good attackers may try all sorts of
sneaky tricks - who are you trying to keep out? The casual p2p user, or
a determined hacker with physical access? The latter is quite difficult.
;-)

(Disclaimer: I've never tried FlexResp...)
