Beware! Do not copy and paste this into Terminal. There should
not be a space between /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ and
com.apple.dnbobserver.plist. It could completely hose your system.
I copy / pasted the unload line. And everything is running fine.
I did check the Activity Monitor, and bfobserver is no longer
running. Could the potential system hosing happen with a restart?
(goes off to back up important files).

Holy Cow! That is Bad Stuff.
Sorry folks -- Jeffrey is exactly right. That space definitely
should not be there. Copy/Paste error.
On my working, stock, Tiger system, launchd is configured to have
the following daemons running (with DNB disabled). Your set of
daemons will likely be different, but this is a relatively minimal
(I have pretty much everything disabled in Sharing) set of daemons
and -- like I said -- it does work.

Sorry for the mistake. I'm going back to my cave to meditate over
a new form of 'rm -rf foo/bar/ *' self destruction.

Jonas is right. Your original post doesn't have the errant space.
Something else happened to introduce the space. Happily, I used the
proper version of your instructions.
Although nothing untoward happened to my system, it did inspire me to
set up a proper / complete backup of my laptop. Which is a good thing.
