IPv6 not using actual IP address

IPv6 is active by default and uses an IP address that is not the actual IP address. This means we cannot configure a proxy script file to correctly work. Our only solution is to ban Firefox from compay computers and no longer support.

You posted with an old and no longer supported Firefox 3.0.13 version.

Do you have that problem with the latest Firefox 3.6.10 version as well?

Hi, Ignore my config. The problem is with all IPv6 supported versions and mostly PC versions. My organisation has 6000 staff and those with laptops can't use firefox because the IP address Firefox gives is not the true address and therefore not covered in our automatic proxy configuration script - so the browser does not route via the proxy server or send direct as it should.
