hi there,

wouldn't it be your browser requesting the IPv6 address?  you can check easy
enough by pinging any website (which you haven't resolved yet) and see if u get
the same calls.

unless you are pointing your resolver to localhost, and  your local named is
requesting the v6 AAAA records. Look into disabling this behaviour @ named.conf.

cheers,
B
