Turning IPv6 related DNS lookups off (even in firefox) is NOT fixing the
issue - will people please stop posting this utter trash as helpful
information please? There's enough myths around IPv6 as it is and this
isn't helping.

(plus such people might want to look at how the getaddrinfo() call
works..)

The problem is the OP has *enabled* IPv6 - loaded the module etc. but
hasn't *configured* it. It won't magically set up a tunnel / 6to4 /
native connection, you have to do a little more tweaking

See ipv6-6to4.howto in the initscripts documentation
(/usr/share/doc/initscripts-<version>/) for a brief primer on 6to4,
which will get you up and going without having to sign up for a tunnel
broker etc.

I have two IPv6 tunnels running - one on a Fedora 10 server (qbert,
served by my ISP here in Australia) and a CentOS VM (gyruss) through
Hurricane Electric - both work OK
