What? No IPv4 address?
Most of you are visiting this site using IPv4. Few people in 2013 will truely only have access to the IPv6 Internet. This FAQ will help explain why we were unable to detect IPv4 on your browser.
This site works by telling your browser to connect to a series of test urls. These urls, if they do connect, report back to the web browser your IP address. JavaScript is not permitted to look at your system itself; it is only allowed to interact with the web. As such, if the urls all fail, we are unable to determine your IP address.
This usually indicates something is broken, or filtered.
Since the test obviously failed, here is a simpler test to help you know if you are ready for web sites to offer their services on IPv6. After this simpler test, you'll see more information about specific browsers.

If green, you will have no problem on World IPv6 day. If this fails, seek help from your IT department, helpdesk, or ISP tech support. If this fails, consider using the full test, with IE, Firefox, Safari, or Chrome, to get more detailed information about possible failure reasons. |

IPv6 | If red or blank, do not stress! Few people already have IPv6 at this time; and it is not critical for 2011 but will be for the coming years. |

The NoScript browser extension disables scripts on the page. In the upper right corner of your browser, is the NoScript icon. Click this to bring up a menu; and temporarily permit scripts on this site. You will have to do this twice. The first time enables scripts from the main site; the second time will enable all the "off site" scripts that are needed as well.
The AdBlock+ plugin is suspect; it depends on the ruleset that is used. More information from people willing to investigate would be appreciated.
