I don't know if this can shed some light on what's happening,
but at the command prompt I tried "sc query Ip6FwHlp" and got:
SERVICE_NAME: Ip6FwHlp
TYPE : 20 WIN32_SHARE_PROCESS
STATE : 1 STOPPED
(NOT_STOPPABLE,NOT_PAUSABLE,IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)
WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 1066 (0x42a)
SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : -2147014849 (0x8007273f)
CHECKPOINT : 0x0
WAIT_HINT : 0x0
Searching for 0x8007273f didn't turn up anything of any help.

Thanks, I'll read it but probably won't understand most of it.
I'm not a "networking expert". ;-) I use a DLink DI-704 and
NEVER have to even touch it, it's totally transparent. I set
it up once about 4-5 years ago and that was it.
They have an emulator here:
http://support.dlink.com/techtool/DI704/Emulator/IndexLogon.htm
and I didn't see anything about NAT while I was logged in to
mine. I searched the manual......
ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Gateway/di704/Manual/di704_manual_082201.pdf
for "NAT" and this is what I found:
----------------------
"The DI-704's NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to
protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind the DI-704 are
invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some
of them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping."
"Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet
games, Video conferencing, Internet telephony and so on.
Due to the firewall function, these applications can not work
with a pure NAT router. 'Special Applications' area enables
some of these applications to work with a NAT router. If
Special Applications is still insufficient to allow an
application to function correctly, try DMZ host in the 'Misc
Items' options.
1. Trigger: the outbound port number the application issued
first.
2. Incoming Ports: when the trigger packet is detected, the
inbound packets to the specified port numbers are allowed to
pass the firewall.
The DI-704 provides some predefined settings in the gray pad on
the bottom of the web page.
Choose the Popular application and click Copy to copy the
predefined setting.
Note! At any time, only one PC can use each Special Application
tunnel."

I don't know if it's IPV6 friendly.

Clint, this might be of interest to you
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/teredo.mspx
Or it might not, I know one area of the planet that is very
IPV6 friendly
is Asia and Europe also is picking up speed, and both are over
and above
the level of North America with deployments.
Do you also have a router with NAT running? Is it IPV6 friendly
too?
Keep us updated on this development please.

In the hour of 11:41 AM 7/4/2004, Support-OrpheusComputing.com
spoke this:
>A few days ago I installed the IPV6 Networking update on XP

It

"Services"

running.
>There is also the new entry now for "IPV6 Internet connection
>firewall" which I cannot start. Every time I try and start
the
>service, I get: "Windows could not start the ipv6 internet
>connection firewall on local computer" and "refer to error
>code 2147014849". Then it says for more info check the
>system event log, of which of course doesn't have JACK
>about it! All it states is "The IPv6 Internet Connection
>Firewall service was unable to find support for IPv6. This
>may indicate that the IPv6 protocol suite is not installed
>or it failed to start. The data is the error code" and it is
>"Event 32005", and when you click the link for more
>info, it has NONE. ALL of the dependencies for IPV6 ARE
>RUNNING, so there's no reason why it shouldn't start.
>Of course I can't find any info on these phrases or events
