I think that some of your posting did not make it to the digest.
"I get two of these per hour..."  Two of what?

As I look at one of my _mscds zones from my MS W2k+3 DNS Server, I see
these TTLs:

     SOA    1H
     NS     1H
     CNAME 10M
     SRV   10M

I do not know of any way to change them.  That question should be asked
in a MS DNS forum.  I have not done any research into this area because
the MS-supplied/generated TTLs are not causing any problems in my DNS
configuration.
