Just found this program. I have used it just a short time but can see that it is a life saver concerning Windows systems; a really great program!! I love how it forces users to learn about their Windows computers, and how to be very careful playing around with removing files (we hope) etc.. The constant and in-depth help is also really great.
THANK YOU for providing this software!

Bonjour is a file that loads with Itunes, and maybe other Apple programs. I think it's related to portable devices which I don't have. I have deleted it in the past and, as I remember, it causes problems with other Apple programs. It's harmless as far as I know.

This file is related to the Application listed in Programs and Features (Windows 7) named Bonjour. I installed some apple software (ITunes) to use with my IPhone and this appeared in Control Panel\Programs and features. No reason to freak out on this one.
