dont delete it you will n eed it in the future. it is in network and sharing>change adapter settings>pick adapter>properties>ipv6 uncheck.

hope this helps. You will need it in the future for win 7 homegroup.

You dont need it in vista, and when you go to win 7 it will be installed. IPv6 is known to cause random network drops so you are better off without it right now.
