Adobe has loaded its apps up with a lot of peripheral functions that rely on tying users to their so called 'services' 'meetings' etc. Fine, if you want those features, but not fine when they lock your install into all that excess code that clogs up productive environments without the opportunity to choose what you want at the install stage. Thankfully, there is a way around their install procedure to choose what you want and a way to totally eliminate Bonjour. I run CS3 totally bare bones with PS and Bridge.
I run lean, fast, workflow specific machines and I don't want any internet related crap on them, especially things like Bonjour that dance to an Adobe drummer, not me. I have one machine where all apps extraneous to the production environment clog each other's arteries, including MS Office, etc,etc,etc.
It is the move to relinquishing install control that pisses me off most about Adobe's recent software (really bloatware if you have to load up a machine with code that you do not require). It is a more sophisticated form of spamming in my opinion.
