IPv6

I'm using IIS on Windows 7, and I can't get it to bind to the IPv6 equivalent of 0.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.1 ([::] and [::1])

The first one gives me an error when trying to start the service that says

The World Wide Web Publishing Service (WWW Service) did not register the URL 
prefix http://[::]:80/ for site 1. The site has been disabled. The data field
contains the error number.

The second one doesn't give any errors but doesn't listen on anything apart from 0.0.0.0

The bindings dropdown only has my teredo address (2001::) listed, and not my link local (fe80::) one.
