Ping returns weird result

On my Windows XP SP2 machine (on a home network, not part of a domain), if I
ping my local machine name, it returns:

Pinging MY-HOME.my.com [::1] with 32 bytes of data:

Ping statistics for ::1:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

If I do an IPCONFIG, it shows I have IP addresses, etc. If I ping it's IP
address, that works fine too (although it doesn't return the name of the
machine when I ping).

IPV6 is enabled on this box. Teredo Tunneling is also showing up too.

This seems messed up, as I have seen this work fine on other machine.

Ted,

This is typical for a computer with IPV6. Do you have any other symptoms? Can
you share files, access the Internet, etc?
