You can do this by entering the BIOS pre Windows bootup.

go into the bios and lower the multiplier by 1
total cpu clock speed = fsb / number of cores (i think?) X multiplier

The BIOS is the program, no software can throttle your CPU clock as far as I know.

It's possible that the settings are not there in the BIOS on a branded machine, maybe they want that stuff locked.
