It's quite difficult to block p2p, but you can try though.
If you want to use layer7 match you have to switch to hugel7 kernel, and try

iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -m layer7 --l7proto fasttrack -j DROP
iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -m layer7 --l7proto edonkey -j DROP
iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -m layer7 --l7proto directconnect -j DROP
iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -m layer7 --l7proto bittorrent -j DROP

If you can't block 100% p2p another way is to control traffic through a QoS (Quality of Service) script, so everyone can work without problems.
You can take a look at Linux Advanced routing & traffic control if you haven't already.
