I had a similar issue with aol.com not resolving but everything else was. It 
turned out I had request forwarding off. It seems odd some domains will 
resolve & others won't when it's off. At any rate, I set it up to forward 
unknown requests to shaw and it fixed it.

Be sure not to run a wide open recursive nameserver :)

Is this a BIND setup?
