dangling CNAME pointer

First of all you are running a version of BIND which has _known root
exploits_! You should upgrade to at the VERY least 8.2.3-REL
*immediately*. See http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/bind-security.html

I'm not positive what the error 'dangling CNAME pointer' means, but
unless you are running the doubleclick.net domain (doubt it), you
don't have any say about it - I guess. Someone please educate me on
this.
