DNS Server set to forwarder randomly going out to root servers

Hi,
The problem we are having is intermittent DNS lookup failures tring to
resolve Public Internet based Web Services or Pages.
I have a W2K3 SP1 single forest single domain with integrated AD/DNS
established.
The clients (XP SP2) are set to resolve from a specific DC enabled for DNS
in the domain. (Set via DHCP Scope)
The Domain is Fred.Local
The DNS Server is configured with 1 forwarder which points to the Internal
interface of the Firewall. The DNS Server is not configured as a root server
"." The Firewall is configured as DNS proxy.
The Firewall also has a rule set that says that no internal machine may make
DNS requests to external DNS hosts.
Here is where I don't know how to configure the internal DNS server
correctly. I would like to stop the Internal DNS Server (forwarder) from
going out to the root servers for lookups. When it does this the firewall
rule blocks the request (as it should) and the request times out which
returns to the client as a failed request.
So can you stop the DNS Server from doing this? Do you want to? What am I
misunderstanding about this?
Thanks in advance!
Fred Lobmeyer
