I just found my ISATAP adapter with a yellow exclamation point in my device
manager and simply "right clicked" and chose "uninstall" and it was gone BUT
I should NOT have done so. I later found a Support article Article ID :
932520 that indicates the "error flag" is a Windows bug" and that the ISATAP
adapters are actually working under Vista. Don't know if this applies to
your situation but hope so.

I've been having problems getting my network issues resolved since I've
loaded Vista. I have the latest Intel pro/100 VE & Pro/wireless 3945ABG on
my new HP laptop. These worked fine in XP but fail now. There are 2 ISATAP
devices listed under these network cards in device manager. Both of them are
broken complianing windows could not load the drivers for them. However, I
cannot remove them either. My laptop can see my routers (USR 5461 & Zyxel
334WT) and can join workgroups to share & see files with other computers.
But I cannot get to the internet. I did once or twice but cannot duplicate
that anymore. I suspect the ISATAP devices. Please help ASAP

Wow, My post was almost exactly a year ago! Anyhow the KB article you've
cited was last updated March 15, 2007, which was well after my troubles.
Anyhow I'm glad you found the solution. I was one of early lost souls who
gave up trying to fix their problem. I returned the laptop and cycled
through some others while I abused Costco's 6 month return polices. My main
critera was finding a high res screen and Vista. I ended up with a Dell D820
series and no driver issues. (Less Stereo Bluetooth, which I've fixed)

I did realize it was so far back for you but thought I'd pass it on both for
yourself and anyone else who happens do to a search on Isatap as I did. I
find the newsgroups to be an excellent source of info. I might have thought
after a year this issue would be sorted but I guess with all the variables of
different hardware and software it's almost impossible for Microsoft to solve
every instance before they crop up.

Anyway Cheers!
