Very nice. Unfortunately the criminals are always working on new ways. I'd personally like to see the process of purchasing a domain more scrutinized. Some of these botnets register thousands of domains to keep from being detected. That just shouldn't be allowed.
IF you only use your system at home on the same router (FIOS in this case) is it sufficient to change the DNS server to OpenDNS on the router only?
Same! Their servers tend to have lower latency than Google's and 100% less creep factor. This is definitely icing on the cake :wub:Been using OpenDNS for about 6 years now. It gets better and better. Everyone should use OpenDNS manually entered in their laptop's WIFI adapter so you don't risk DNS poisoning. I read about that as a warning to people that may be attending Defcon in Vegas and using the hotel's WIFI. LOL
IF you only use your system at home on the same router (FIOS in this case) is it sufficient to change the DNS server to OpenDNS on the router only? I am running win 7 and Bodhi Linux (ubuntu 14.04 variant). Thanks for any tips or advise. IS this a good procedure to follow if kids may use your system once in a while? https://support.opendns.com/entries/46060260-FamilyShield-Router-Configuration-Instructions
