Explanation (?):

The peer networking group authentication service provides Windows with the ability to authenticate peers in TCP/IP version 6 (IPv6). I imagine this allows an IPv6 computer to properly test the trust and integrity of seed servers and various peers. If you don't need this service then you don't need IPv6 and you can remove it from add / remove programs in the control panel.

"Man is the only animal that deals in that atrocity of atrocities, War. He is the only one that gathers his brethren about him and goes forth in cold blood and calm pulse to exterminate his kind. He is the only animal that for sordid wages will march out... and help to slaughter strangers of his own species who have done him no harm and with whom he has no quarrel.... And in the intervals between campaigns he washes the blood off his hands and works for 'the universal brotherhood of man' - with his mouth". --Mark Twain
