I've never run Apache under Windows (can't see the point in doing half a
job, run it under Linux) but I'm guessing it behaves a little like the
Burst! BitTorrent client.
If you look at the Apache process in the Netlimiter window you should see a
little "+" sign to the left of it, click it. You should now see bandwidth
usage for each individual Apache process, this is where you'll do your
bandwidth throttling but you'll have to do it for each individual process.
To be honest you're better off packet shaping at the firewall, most of the
professional ones will offer some degree of bandwidth management.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
