This may be kind of stuipid, but... Does binding your server to a certain IP Address have any side effects?

It can cause anything from mild rashes to leprosy.

Seriously, dont think so, not sure how abyss handles it exactly, but I imagine it would just ignore requests to or to domains pointing to addresses other than the one you specify.

From what I understand, i think it broadcasts that this server is ALWAYS located on that IP, and when someone tries to contact that, it connects to my server... I dunno though :D

Taken from the apache manual (Unpopular here, true, but its a good reference for some non apache specific things.)
Apache 1.3 Manual wrote:
BindAddress is used to restrict the server to listening to a single address, and can be used to permit multiple Apache servers on the same machine listening to different IP addresses.

Abyss Web Server has also its manual and Bind to IP is explained there too: http://www.aprelium.com/data/doc/2/abyssws-win-doc-html/hosts-configuration.html#HOSTS-GENERAL-ADVANCED-BINDIP .

Click on the small (?) button next to "Bind to IP" in the console or use Google: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLD,GGLD:2004-48,GGLD:en&q=bind+to+ip+site%3Aaprelium%2Ecom .
