Bonjour has been disabled

Home Share in Itunes in not working - am getting a message that says the Bonjour service has been disabled, re-enable it. I have no idea how it got disabled in the first place, cannot find a download anywhere (have tried all links posted in this forum, and don't know how to re-enable it. Last time I used Home Share, everything was fine. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated as I am tearing my hair out. Thanks!

I too am experiencing problems with Bonjour not starting (Error Code 10014) after installing new version of ITunes. I can't get App mbackup and msecure to work with my iPhone among the other iTunes capabilities as listed in other posts.

1) I am using Kaspersky as my Firewell and Bonjour is "trusted".
2) I have deleted Bonjour and reinstalled it.
3) I have re-started my computer and "repaired" Bonjour.
4) Bonjour is setup in preferences as "Automatic".

What else can one do to fix the problem?

Hey, I just did the update for iTunes, Bonjour and Quicktime that came out on my automatic updates and after it it said my Bonjour has been deactivated.
Now Usually I can fix things on my own, but my Computer's in German, and my German is horrible.
Can somebody please dumb it down as much as possible on how to re-enable Bonjour on Vista, for me? Like 'go to control panel, then click on the picture that looks like (eg) the green sync button' etc. I really importantly need these steps dumbed down, as without my Bonjour, my stupid Vista is not realising it is Authorised and keeps asking me to Authorise it in my iTune's store which is getting me NO WHERE!!!
