Q: What is program Bonjour?

It appears on my list of Programs under Windows XP as an Apple program. But there is no explanation on the Apple website, as referenced in the description within the program entry. I was considering un-installing it, as part of a cleanup of my PC, but am hesitant to do that if it is called or used by other programs.
