  1. Recommended Solution – machine wide: uncomment the localhost address in the hosts file (%WINDIR%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts): (source)
    # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
    127.0.0.1 localhost
    # ::1 localhost # localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.127.0.0.1 localhost# ::1 localhost
     
  2. Firefox-only solution: disable IPv6
    1. Type about:config in the address bar and press Enter.
    2. Scroll down until you find network.dns.disableIPv6. 
    3. Double-click on it to change its value to true.
    4. Restart Firefox.
     
  3. System wide-configuration (option 1): Disable IPv6 Random identifier
    netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
     
  4. System wide-configuration (option 2): Disable IPv6 from Your LAN Interfaces and Connections
    1. Launch Vista, click on Start, and then click on Run. Once the Run window appears, type regedit.

    3. The registry is as follows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip6\Parameters\DisabledComponents
