Hi,

I have compiled some documentation and articles on implementations:

The IPV6TF Portal has lots of information regarding Management Tools,
Address Tools, DNS Tools, Network Tools, Network Services and User
Applications:
http://www.ipv6tf.org/using/resources/applications.php 
  
6WINDGate? Software
http://www.6wind.com/

Teredo tunneling:
"Teredo is an IPv6 transition technology that provides address
assignment and host-to-host automatic tunneling for unicast IPv6
connectivity when IPv6/IPv4 hosts are located behind one or multiple
IPv4 network address translators (NATs)."
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/teredo.mspx

MoonV6
"The Moonv6 project is a global effort led by the North American IPv6
Task Force (NAv6TF) involving the University of New Hampshire -
InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL), Internet2, vendors, service
providers and regional IPv6 Forum Task Force network pilots worldwide.
 Taking place across the U.S. at multiple locations, the Moonv6
project is the largest permanently deployed multi-vendor IPv6 network
in the world."
http://moonv6.sr.unh.edu/

Verio takes the plunge on IPv6:
"ISP Verio, a subsidiary of NTT, is rolling out IPv6 support to U.S.
customers in a move the company says will offer more flexibility for
current and future network needs"
http://www.networkworld.com/news/2003/0707verioipv6.html

"IPv6 deployment is easier and costs less than anticipated because the
protocol now ships with many networking products. All the major router
manufacturers - including Cisco, Juniper, Foundry Networks and Extreme
Networks - support IPv6. Microsoft supports IPv6 in Windows XP, and
IPv6 comes bundled with the most popular versions of Unix and Linux.
Key public domain software packages such as the Mozilla Web browser,
Apache Web server and Sendmail e-mail software also support IPv6."
http://www.networkworld.com/news/2003/1215ipv6.html

And finally Microsoft's Frequently Asked Questions About the IPv6
Protocol for Windows XP:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/plan/faqipv6.mspx

Is this helpful for you?
Regards

You ignored the IPSec part of the question completely.

I know that IPv6 is supported in Windows XP. My question was, if there
are Microsoft or third party implementations of IPSec with Internet
Prorocol Security (IPSec) for Windows XP.

The last sentence of my previous clarification should be:

My question was, if there are Microsoft or third party implementations
of IPv6 with Internet Prorocol Security (IPSec) for Windows XP.

Absolutley correct.
