What do I need to get multi-cast DNS on Windows (7) including the Windows box announcing its name in the .local domain?

I am not so much interested in the service discovery part. It would be nice bonus, but what I need is the computers to be able to refer to each other by name. They have dynamic IP addresses assigned, but the router does not support DNS.

The only things I could find with Google and looked somewhat official is "Bonjour print services", which is not obvious whether it is what I need. And then there is a bunch of downloads of various versions where I can't verify whether they are valid.

Note that mDNS works fine for the computers attached on the network so while it would be possible to find another solution, getting mDNS on the Windows box is strongly preferred.
