Perhaps close all ports then open common ones

20,21, 22 25, 80, 110, 443

You will get a few phone calls and need to open more ports

Otherwise use firewall, its can drop most? p2p traffic built in :-)

53 port number is required for DNS serivce, it is also very important service.
Most popular p2p protocols are recognized by the MirkoTik RouterOS,
you can use '/ip firewall filter add chain=forward action=drop p2p=all-p2p'.
