IPv6 connection problems

OK Guys, here goes.....

Edit: Done and gone, all seems OK, no more error from IPv6 in event viewer.

Thanks to all!

Well, very puzzeling:

I have Weather Bug running in system tray.

Long after startup, on line for a couple of hours, Get Windows warning, Weather Bug has encountered a problem and needs to close.

Click send error report to MSFT

After report complete, takes me to MSFT website that tells me this system crash can be fixed by installing the Advanced Networking Pack.

Also interesting, Windows Update site, scan for updates, lists this update. Knows I uninstalled it. Wish it would do that for all updates.

So I then re-start Weather Bug, runs as expected, no errors.

Wondering what is going on?

Sounds like MS is deadset on somebody installing and keeping that update!

 

Persistant, are'nt they.

 

Here is microsoft's faq. Like I said overkill for the home network. It isn't a critical update. http://download.microsoft.com/download/2/F/1/2F1A22FD-E838-4BC6-AC40-FBDBCC3A17A4/ANP_FAQ.htm

 

Martin,
It's all very simple. Your computer is angry at you. (Probably because you gave it the name "Catastrophe "!) Soon, your garage doors will open and shut without warning, your microwave will burn your popcorn, and your clock radio will begin blaring rap music at you at 4AM. When all of your appliances are misbehaving, the only solution will be to approach your computer, beg forgiveness and promise it more RAM and a better name next time. (No, "Train Wreck" is just as insulting!) Do not try to threaten it into submission. Showing it your sledge hammer and pointing out the effect of truck tires on its guts will only infuriate it further, and give you more burned toast and if it gets really angry, it will tell your hot water heater. You are going to have to be sugar sweet (and believable!) to get it on your side once again. Too bad your comp isn't a woman- roses and diamonds would get you out of the doo-doo you're in, but it's a sentient machine, three times more unreasonable than a woman. Good luck, Martin, you're gonna need it!

Not sure I believe that's possible.

 

Had to come back and finish previous post (had to duck, click submit and scram when somebody looked over my shoulder and saw what I was saying). Martin, if Johanna's suggestion doesn't help, get out your XP CD and threaten a reformat and custom install, leaving out all the unreasonable features. If only that worked on WOMEN!!

 

Right now, Dave, your comp is ratting you out to your wife! Ha ha! We don't have to be reasonable! We have half the money and all the-well, you know, Dave, after 12 kids, it's pretty obvious you keep going back for more. Before Wade and I married, I told him two words would keep him out of trouble, and that whenever he was in doubt, they should be said sincerely and without sarcasm, and our marriage would work. The words? "Yes, Ma'am! " So far, so good.

Johanna

 

ROFLMAO

 

HMMMM......Hi, Johanna.....Isint this funny....that I decided to read my husbands posts and went to this one first....UMMMMMM...
What was that Dave???......was that 3 times more unreasonble than a woman??? Oh, and lets not forget the ... "if thats possible "....
His computer is ratting him out is exactly right!!!!...Okay, guys Daves done playing in here for awhile....see I can treat him like a "real" man.........heres what were gonna do....Me...well, I'm gonna go make dinner and do the dishes....and get the kids bathed and ready for school tomorrow....And hes gonna go scrub out the bathtub and mop the kitchen floor...(isint that what a 'real man" does'!!!....
Now Dave thats a ROFLMAO!!!!

I'll show him 3 times more unreasonable!!!
Nice talking to you .....Jodi.....(THE 'UNREASONABLE WIFE?!?!?)....unreasonable....hmmmm..we'll see!!...LOL....
...Wait till he reads this.....hahaha
Well here he comes....now its time for me to ...duck ...tuck and click submit... "whatever it was he said ".....before he comes looking over my shoulder.....wasn't that the comment Dave??.....a big ...........RRRROOOFFFLLLLMMAAAAOOOOO!!!!!

 

See what I get for trying to be funny. Gotta go.....two words

Where's that disk................

 

Well, it's nearly 2AM...wonder if Dave was waving a disk or twirling a mop? Wonder if Dave is asleep in his bed, or in the doghouse? Wonder if Catastophe called Martin's Home Security System and the Police Dept., Fire Dept and HazMat team are in his driveway? Wonder why anybody living in North Georgia would care about the weather? It's always the same- 10 times more pleasant than here! Wonder why I'm still up trying to fix somebody else's broken computer when I'm not gonna get paid, and I know it will be back, because the owner thinks she is so much of an expert that she doesn't need any AV protection? (She "knows" what's safe to click on!) I wonder if my kids will do me the courtesy of "sleeping in" until at leat 6:30? Goodnight, all, and have a wonderful tomorrow....

Johanna

 

Johanna - you said a better name next time. (No, "Train Wreck" is just as insulting!)

Glad you specified that was not a good name. Putting that space in the PC name would add another layer of agony on to Martin. Now Train-Wreck or Train_Wreck should be fine.

 

Johanna: You're not making fun of another XP users agonies are you???

Dave: Hope you are out of the dog house

Newt: It is going to stay "Catastrophy "

To all: Advanced Networking pack uninstalled, IPv6 error gone, Weatherbugh not crashing anymore.

Note: Blue Ridge Georgia has had about 1/2 inch of snow this year, very inclement weather, my sympathies to you northereners.

We do get ice storms that always take out the power. None so far this year.
