Yup it did.
I have had this happen on three different machines I tried to install it 
on.

It was in all four trees of the registry named HKEY_CURRENT_USER, 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, HKEY_USERS and HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG

When I did a search for the IP number it kept pulling up I found it in 
addition to the real IP that was then residing on the machine.

I didn't receive a correct value back until I physically delted this 
entry in the registry branches affected, and then it stopped misbehaving.

Regardless of which, I will start going over the Bind 9.3 details again 
sometime this weekend and I hope I can figure out a bit more in detail 
what is actually happening and why I can't seem to get the service to 
start.

It simply says it cannot start and closes out without a debug note or 
anything. Is there a setting somewhere where I can turn it on in debug 
mode and get a log file or something?
