Bill, thanks for your reply.
This physical computer has only one network adapter and there are virtual machines that (when they are running) communicate with each other, other LAN attached computers and the Internet (via a router), so yes, there is a virtual network linked to the NIC.
I ran the netsh advfirewall show currentprofile on another Windows Server 2008 Domain Controller (single DC in experimental domain) installation and it shows:
Domain Profile Settings
--------------------------------------------
State ON
So, looks like you're supposition that Hyper-V is causing the discrepancy is most likely bang on.
In a "production" installation, I wouldn't recomend using the Hyper-V parent partition as a Domain Controller either. In my simple home installation, the server is mostly to be a domain controller and WSUS server - running Virtual Machines is secondary, but I wanted to get some experience with Hyper-V, so added that role.
I find many references in forums, articles etc. that say "Microsoft recommends" not running applications in the Parent vm, but I can't find any Microsoft document that says this (not that it/they don't exist, just I can't find them!). Do you know where such recommendations by Microsoft can be found? I'd like to have it handy for future reference.

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
Here is a link to a Technet article which mentions it.

The main reasons seem to be security based, not performance based.
