| Hello I am a new user and not to adept but am learning.

Possible causes for the error:

- - Zone alarm 'missed' an outgoing DNS query to your router, and reported an
error when the reply arrived.

- - You have something in your router configuration that points DNS to a
machine in your LAN (are you running DNSCache?).  Note this could be
something like an entry for the "private.network" (or other non-existant)
domain, and doesn't have to be one of the top-level DNS entries.

- - Some bozo on the 'net has a 192.168.1.x private IP listed as a NS entry,
you tried to resolve his IP, and your router happily queried the machine on
your internal LAN for DNS information (which of course didn't work!).
