Looking at your data you have Windows XP

Only IPv4 on your ADSL (at least PPPoE should be ADSL)

A private network with 6to4 addresses in RFC1918 space, these won't ever
work.

This _could_ work, it does use your public IPv4 of your PPPoE adapter.

Based on the fact which outgoing interface your host picks it should
work.
Try some tracerouting and stuff, pings and the like and find out ;)

Also when one installs the ThreeDegrees software, and thus the P2P SDK
you get a newer IPv6 stack which supports Teredo.

IMHO (<-- watch those four letters ;) a configured tunnels is better.
Especially while debugging and based on latency times. So you would
prolly
be better off getting a tunnel. Then again checking your IPv4 address
you are located in Australia, thus, mail progsoc@<lemme think>,
check their whois:

BTW, checking:
 http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/lg/?prefix=2002::/16&matchtype=more
I see quite a lot of more specifics for the 6to4 space. Though private
peerings are allowed there ofcourse, they should never pop up in the
dfz.
