I don't recommend stopping bind as some servers may need to resolve addresses (specially localy-owned ones) and make the changes take effect ASAP.

Usually servers run at runlevel 2, which means that deleting /etc/rc2.d/S15bind9 will do the trick.
Also, if clamd and clamav-milter are both being used, make sure to tell clamav-milter to use clamd instead of loading the whole engine+database on it's one.
