mdnsresponder.exe
Does this file have any real use for anything in windows? My virus/firewall is stopping it from communicating unknown data quite frequently.

mDNSResponder is a Bonjour system service implrmenting DNS service discovery;
Bonjour is Apple's "zero" configuration networking, it enables automatic discovery of what is on the IP network.
Installed with iTunes and/or some other software.
To remove it:
- open command window
- cd C:\Program Files\Bonjour
- mdnsresponder -remove
- rename/delete mdnsNSP.dll (it won't allow itself to be deleted, so rename it)
- restart windows.

Went to the "Control Panel", "Add or Remove Programs" and removed Bonjour. :fluffy:
