Prefer IPV4 over IPV6

Even though we do not have IPV6 enabled on any adapters our domain servers and windows 7 desktops still seem to resolve to IPV6 addresses. We run a Microsoft Fix It 50410 and this resolves our issue but only for a short period of time. Not sure what causes it to revert but always seems to eventually go back to resolving as IPV6 addresses.

From what I understand the Fix It 50410 makes some registry edits that cause it to prefer IPV4 over IPV6 and, by the way, works great but once again only for a short period of time. A few days or so.

Can anyone let me know what registry changes it's actually making so I can put them in a group policy that applies to all machines on our domain?

Thanks
