Well, all blocking port 8181 does not stop it from Trying to use

I read the original request, as a way to stop IM Remote to auto-add
bonjour discovered servers, or simply ignore bonjour completely.
A simple preference setting?
Bonjour is not used to discover the servers on the LAN. Perhaps it
will be used in the future. A SLP-like UDP broadcast is used.
Server-discovery is the only thing that uses UDP in the client, so
blocking UDP will only disable the server-discovery.
Yes, it could be implemented as a preference setting.
