Worse, the IPv6 connectivity is broken in such a way that Firefox and Internet Explorer do not fall back to IPv4. Tracing is broken for both protocols.  The 10-net addresss in the IPv4 path were cute.

If someone knows the admins behind the EFTPS website and can forward this to them, the accounting firm for which I work would appreciate it.
