I wouldn't do anything, I disabled IPv6 within the first hour after installing W7 - just as I've done since Vista was in Beta.

Was this a popup?

-Actually no, just text on the top of the Yahoo page.It's gone now.

If your ISP doesn't support IPv6 (many don't), using it is pretty difficult and would probably be slower than IPv4 anyway.

OK, thanks. I don't plan to do anything.Everything runs fine.

Eventually you will need to be IPv6 compliant, either that or you won't have anywhere to surf. At least that's how I understand it. IPv4 has run out of web addresses and IPv6 is just the next step in the evolution.

Well, when the world does switch to IPv6, you can still use IPv4 internally.
