Já que a cena de hacking do Matrix virou uma discussão paralela sobre IPv4 e
IPv6, aqui vai um artigo que saiu ontem no Boletim Oxygen3, da Panda.

- Problems filtering IPv6 traffic in Microsoft firewalls -
 Oxygen3 24h-365d, by Panda Software (http://www.pandasoftware.com)

Madrid, May 22 2003 - Microsoft has released an article, at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q306203, informing
that Internet Connection Firewall and Basic Firewall do not block Internet
Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) traffic.

When IPv6 is installed and Internet Connection Firewall (ICF) or Basic
Firewall is enabled, the firewall filters Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4)
traffic. But neither Basic Firewall nor ICF block or filter IPv6 traffic.

ICF is available in Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft Windows Server 2003,
while Basic Firewall is a component of Routing and Remote Access that can be
enabled for any public interface in a computer running Routing and Remote
Access belonging to the Windows Server 2003 family.

The only workaround recommended by Microsoft is to use a firewall that can
block IPv6 traffic.
