Bonjour service prevented internet access

I had this nagging problem for months. About half the time I'd boot my machine it wouldn't connect on-line (Win 7_64bit). During this period I switched from cable to DSL and the problem seemed to disappear but then after some updates it returned. I tried deleting the recent updates one-by-one, restoring my backup, but the problem returned after re-doing the updates. Finally I did a proper search under unplug and re-plugging the ethernet cable (cause that would get me on-line) and found someone who said they cured the problem by disabling Apple's Boujour service. It worked! I don't have iTunes now so this could be a service left over from an old install of iTunes (in other words the current version of the service may no longer do this). The service looks like this in your services: ##Id_String2.6844F930_1628_4223_B5CC_5BB94B879762## Hope this helps anyone experiencing this problem--it's a sure cure. -- "The best laid schemes of mice and men often go awry . . .
