Hi,
turning off ipv6 will not interrupt anything for a number of years for the vast majortiy of web sites - only Iran and the far east have so far implemented ipv6 - even then you can get to their sites because they are keeping ipv4 and ipv6 addresses for the time being..
to switch off the ipv6
Go to Network and Sharing Center > Manage network connections > MR on your adapter (either Wireless or ethernet depending on the one you are using) > properties . You will then have a list of connection items - switch off Internet Protocol Version 6
I would try and experiment to see if it affects your computer or not, or the web sites you visit -I know when I switched it off in tandem with disabling he IPHelper service and changing the power settings, it cured the freezing problems and Windows 7 has been superb ever since
