The one that ships with Win XP is quite seriously broken in it's 
resolver behaviour (you'll not be able to reach many IPv4 WWW
sites after enabling it) and additionally none of the Windows
services, which would make it useful within a corporate network,
are IPv6 enabled.

It would be nice if at that point one could get away with IPv6-only 
intranet with IPv4 proxy/NAT to the outside. But I don't see that
happening with the rate of progress Windows has got anytime soon.
