Apple Updates Bonjour for Windows

Apple Updates Bonjour for Windows

by , 10:10 AM EDT, April 19th, 2006

Apple has updated its Windows version of Bonjour, the zero configuration network communication protocol. Bonjour for Windows 1.0.3 enhances usability and compatibility, and also improves the network protocol's start up performance. Once installed, Windows users can take advantage of Bonjour-enabled devices and services like Mac users already do. Bonjour is included with Mac OS X, and is available as a free download for Windows 2000, 2003, and XP users on the Apple Web site.

Is anybody aware of a similar extension for Firefox that will show Zeroconf-enabled http servers on the local network?

Subject: No longer called "Bonjour" in France...

In honor of France's (new?) (pending?) (proposed?) DRM law, the French version has been renamed "Va te faire foutre", with an upcoming pro version to be named "Va te faire foutre enculй!". Pardon my French.
