anybody know how I can resolve this so that I may successfully
install the
IPv6 protocol ?

Thanks in advance, Mack.

Hi, I had the same problem. I'm running Win XP (Pro) SP2. I fixed it
by enter the following command in the command prompt:
esentutl /p %windir%\security\Database\secedit.sdb
After that, installation of TCP/IP Version 6 worked fine.

Hope it will help someone,
Anders

WELL AFTER A YEAR IT STILL HELPS, THANKS A BUNCH ANDERS
