Multiple Tunnel Adapters in Vista

[WJB]

Hi,

I'm running Vista Ultimate and noticed recently that I have many "Tunnel
adapter Local Area Connection* nn" (nn=different numbers for different
connections). Most show the Media State as "Media diconnected", but a couple
are different, e.g.

Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface
Microsoft ISATAP Adapter #5

with different IPv6 addresses.

Can anybody shed some light on this and is there any intrusion risk
associated with them?

Thanks

Thank you very much, dmex. None of these connections show up in my Network &
Sharing Center, and I tend to keep my computers up-to-date, especially wrt
critical and important Windows updates and AV/Firewall updates.
