Drew, again, I had this same problem and have not changed my system at all. I think the problem was on ZoneEdit's side. I could go and change the IP back to the right ones, update it and then refresh and it would change right back to the bad one.... I got the same response you did on the update. Update succeeded and then gave me the wrong IP back.... Took a day to get a reply from ZoneEdit and they didn't seem to know anything about it. Up until yesterday, I have not had a single problem.... Really odd....
