That would be the theredo service. You can disable it.

Also, if you disable IPv6 on Windows, you also disable Home Group networking.
Um, and explain to my why I would want or need that? ;-) James Knott wrote:

Not so much lately. They've gone back to pure evil again -- one of the ways they are now working on moving Win7 users to Win10 is by issuing updates that disable functionality in Win7 (most recent, Win7 Journal). Earlier this year, they moved something else to the cloud. That update disabled the local util. Also down for the count, no recent versions of MS-OFFICE will install anymore --- had to go back and install Office 2k just to read some docs I received.
As for disabling IPv6, you're heading down the wrong path. More and more ISPs are providing IPv6 and some cell carriers are now native IPv6 and only provide IPv4 by large scale NAT or 464XLAT.
Mine already does -- good that I have a fixed-IP
It's far better you learn to work with it than pretend it doesn't exist.
It's on my list, but I have many other things of far greater importance. Porting my email sorting script to remove features made illegal in perl5.18, writing service-ctl scripts to auto-generate RC-scripts from the sasd config files (have a parser for them I wrote a year ago, but never got much farther than that)....several other random projects... I don't think my Domain name would work real well w/only IPv6 either. Not as good connectivity as w/ipv4.
