Why would you consider using OpenDNS rather than that supplied by your ISP?


1. Free for Home and School use.
2. Now 30 million users.
3. Now affiliated with D-Link and Netgear to make it easier to configure your router.
4. No downtime in 5 years.
5. Will not connect to infected sites.

I have been using this service for years now with never a glitch. Worth joining simply for the inbuilt web safety IMHO.
