Bonjour computer programme

The above programme (by Apple) has been installed on my computer?? Is it part of my Kodak software programme? How can I tell if it is 'safe'? Shall I remove it? Please help. Thanks, PC novice

PS. is it ok to run Zone Alarm firewall, adaware, ccleaner, spybot with my F Secure anti virus/firewall package (part of TT broadband package) - or will they conflict and cause problems on my pc - (thanks again)

    It is legit and safe. See here. If you don't need it however just go to Control --> Add/Remove Programs and uninstall it.

    For your 2nd question - generally ok but you don't need 2 software firewalls, unless the TT firewall is serverside rather than installed on your pc. If that's the case stick with ZA.

    :cool:

    Do you trust Apple? Do you need this program? Remove it if you don't!

    If you already have an anti virus/firewall package installed, why would you want to install another firewall? Just stick with what you have installed. adaware, ccleaner, spybot are fine to run with your existing anti virus/firewall package and are recommended.
