When IPv6 capable machines (Mac OS X, Win Vista or Win 7) send DNS query 
request for a www A record in IPv6 format, Name Servers at Network Solution 
respond with generic entry (*, all others) rather than the correct www entry.

DNS servers of our company are Windows 2003 R2. Either they are sending out or 
forwarding the request in the wrong format or Network Solution's NS server 
don't understand IPv6 requests, resulting in non-specific, wrong response. (We 
have analyzed the packets and no other DNS servers are involved.)

Has anyone encountered this? Who is the real culprit? What may be the solution?

IPv6 requests are sent out even when IPv6 is disabled (unchecked) on Mac OS X 
or Windows machines. Thanks to you all.
