When I troubleshoot the multicast network, I used the comment "show ip igmp group" on the router which run PIM dense mode. It straingh that the last reporter of the igmp group is 0.0.0.0. What is the menaing of this? pls help

This normally happens becuase the reporter does not have an IP address yet. It is probably trying to do a DHCP or a BOOTP or something. What was the address of the group? If we recognise it, we can find out what it was trying to do.

Why DHCP or BOOTP will join my private multicast group?

"show ip igmp group" will show all the multicast groups, not just the private ones. What was the group address? If the group is 224.0.0.12, then that is the DHCP relay / agent address.
Could you post the output of the command please.
