TCP/IPv6 Limited Connectivity

Recently I've been working on a computer that has both TCP/IPv4 and 6 installed. The TCP/Ipv4 works fine and allows for things such as Windows Updates and such to work. However, Microsoft IE will not work and I think it is because the status on the v6 protocol says LIMITED. Vista won't let me reinstall the protocol for some reason. I think this is the problem but not sure. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

For testing, assign the machine a static IPv4 address & gateway instead of DHCP. I think you'll find that it will work.
