i've been using it at home for a couple months now i guess.   been working great.

you can now block more stuff with their enhanced filters link

it will work great with a static wan ip address.   i still havent been able to get it to work with my dyndns host address so i don't manually have to update my ip address

i encourage you to try it out.

I have been using OpenDNS since its inception, its fantastic.  You can even track your DNS stats.

How often does your IP change? I looked into static but my provider wanted my pinkie finger in return.  Stuck with DHCP and my IP has only changed once in 2 years.

I have been using open DNS for the past 2 weeks and it is WAY faster than my ISP's DNS....

BTW, are these filters that Open DNS sets for known phishing and exploit sites?
