I have confirmed that iTunes is not the source of this particular
chatter in my configuration (Sharing is totally disabled).
The Bonjour chatter from iTunes in this configuration consists of
broadcasts of the form UDP mymachine:5353 224.0.0.251:5353 out. It's
not clear I can disable this either without also disabling access to my
printer; other then the method I'm using "Forward to 127.0.0.1" (using
deny results in numerous errors in the system log). My ipfw.log is
getting rather large, 102M since Feb 12 (I'm not logging the common
incoming UDP broadcast chatter from other machines).
iStumbler will tell you what Bonjour services are being advertised on
your segment.
Note that mDNS will always advertise the system's *name* even if no
services are offered. That allows you to use the .local. names with
commandline tools like ssh.
