6to4 Adapter Removal

From VuzeWiki

Some users have been reporting issues with startup times that are related to there being a huge number of network adapters in their systems with names like 

   net232	(6TO4 Adapter) 
   net100	(Microsoft 6to4 Adapter #85)

Things can be improved by deleting these: see

You need to first go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311272 and click on the link to download Devcon.exe, click on it to run it and it will open a 'unzip to folder' dialog. Type in something like C:\Temp\devcon - this will extract files into 

   C:\Temp\devcon\i386 
   C:\Temp\devcon\ia64

If you have a 32 bit version of Windows the folder you're interested in is 

   C:\Temp\devcon\i386

If 64 bit then 

   C:\Temp\devcon\ia64

Now download http://www.ryanvictory.com/downloads/6to4remover.zip

and unzip this file into

C:\Temp\devcon\i386 or \ia64 as appropriate

Look in that folder, you should now have two files in there:

6to4remover.bat devcon.exe

Double click the 6to4remover.bat file to run it.
