Other sites say to ignore as well:

Do you have Secure Cache against Pollution enabled? Otherwise, I would just
ignore it. If worried, you can run a netmon and try to determine what
machine is querying it at the moment in time the error is generated.

hi,
No "Secure Cache against Pollution enabled" is not enabled , i am not in
position to ignore it as this error is generated when one of my server
queries the DNS srvr , it is stand alone server with any DNS services. the
DNS works A1 when queried fm any other srvr or wks. moreover the the ill
fated srvr queries to any other DNS srvr ( w2k) works properly.

I understand your views not to ignore it. Have you tried enabling the Secure
Cache setting (a recommended setting to alleviate potential DDOS against
DNS).

Curious, what SP level is the machine on and is your AD domain (assuming AD)
a single label name?
