Wasn't my reply, was someone else asking about an (I guess) similar 
question. Novell uses Multicast to announce it's Service Location 
Provider Directory Agent location - that which, for IP, replaces SAP on 
IPX. Also, I've got Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition, which uses 
multicast to find installed servers and clients. All of these are IP4 
multicast.
