Hummm...we use Font Navigator but truthfully, in our current usage of
Vista Ultimate, we do not have to keep switching font groups as we
do/did in Win9x/2K/XP as the number of fonts installed seems to have no
ill effect on Vista at all. We even have one Vista box with 1,600 fonts
install out of our font library of around 40,000 fonts and we can't tell
the difference between it an another Vista box with only 180 fonts
installed.
Also we've seen no ill effect in our installs of Adobe MC CS3 when
bonjour is disabled. Cue seems to be working just fine although you may
be utilizing it for purposes that we are not.
Anyway, I hope you're able to solve your problems with bonjour in the
very near future.
Sorry that I couldn't be of any real help to you.
All the best!
