I agree, though let's consider HTTP. If a firewall is set to filter it, 
yet you are tunneling through with IPv6, you've bypassed your HTTP 
filters which may, among other things, provide AV protection. I 
recognize that there are plenty of ways to infect a machine. My concern 
is that teredo can bypass firewall security and relies upon host 
security to protect the computer. Unfortunately, not everyone utilizes 
host security and has dependence on network firewalls.
