Explanation (?): |
The peer networking identity manager provides the ability for Windows to identify peers when using TCP/IP version 6 (IPv6). I imagine this works with the various other peer services and the function of this service is most likely to contact the seed server to find additional peers. If you don't need this service then you most likely don't need IPv6 and you should remove the entire package from add / remove programs in the control panel. |

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." -- The Bene Gesserit Litany of Fear from the novel Dune by Frank Herbert
