It may be true as they are domain reseller, the reason i chose them because
they are cheap :)
and do the work OK before I start this DNS thing

As in previous post, I did mention that I removed AD role from my server,
only DNS server left, but I guess all the settings are still hidden
somewhere and not been removed.

And I CANNOT delete it manually in DNS manager as it COMES BACK after
restart DNS server.

I will try to search registry and folder to see if it is hidden somewhere.

Good point here. I should email and ask for it.
As this is my first time setting up public DNS, still lots of things to
learn
