Hello Lisandro:

Sure, here's the output from a Vista laptop and ping.

So, even though I didn't tell Vista to use IPv6 for www.freebsd.org, that's 
what it found first.  Thankfully, I'm IPv6 enabled on my laptop so I can reach 
the site.  It appears that the UK site is not advertising IPv6 yet so you can 
still reach it.

Here is another link directly from Microsoft that might have more options for 
disabling IPv6 in your Vista machine.
