This is not 'simply enabling it' :) And then I also wonder if there actually is an implementation for Win98/Win2k those two being pretty old and quite unsupported by now I guess... but this besides the point. > To the best of my knowledge, Microsoft is not shipping > this code.

They are most likely done by these nice DSL "router" (NAT :) setups. Most of these devices have a .local zone configured too. I would not be surprised if these leaked their queries to the root servers. That said, if people want to limit the effect of these 'bogus' queries onto the root servers I suggest that ISP's join into the AS112 project. Also it would maybe be an idea for AS112 to add .local there?
