My guess with a 2002: address is that you have a wireless laptop that has
IPv6 enabled, and somebody is squawking an announcement for a 6-to-4 gateway
and the laptop is attempting to use that because you're not routing native IPv6.

It's not an attempt to beat the packeteer, it's an attempt to beat your lack
of IPv6 support :)
