I'm looking at a can of Falcon brand Dust-Off 
and the only references to the contents are:

contains difluoroethane 

Google led me to the manufacturer's MSDS for the product
http://www.falconsafety.com/assets/falcon/msds/75-37-6.pdf

Generally speaking it's probably safe to use it in a ventilated area,
but the can specifically cautions against using it near sources of
ignition. And the MSDS says that the product will decompose to
hydrofluoric acid under fire conditions and that SCBA gear is
recommended if containers rupture under fire condition.

So generally not something you want to spray on live electronics.

Bob, you probably want to get a fine probe voltmeter 
to check the traces connecting the ethernet jack to to the board.
