I'd always suggest OpenDNS, but these should get you out of trouble quickly as well if your ISP's aren't working.

would one be placing any one of these as a Gopher, SSL proxy or just a regular HTTP proxy inside the Network Settings of FF??
Sorry. Never mind what I just texted above. I was thinking of something else.
EDIT; Actually, Ibelieve where I would place them then, is inside NETWORK settings.
Though I find that I wouldn't be able to place any domain preference settings for any one of these as I can enable with OpenDNS such as the settings for adware sites or porn sites, etc,...etc..
You know what I mean??
That's the advantage of using OpenDNS.
One can enable preference settings for various domains as well as set enable exclusions.
Nevertheless, a good find, anon.
Yes, that's right - they're just "normal" servers. I prefer OpenDNS too, but thought maybe the list would come handy for some. :smile:Quote:

You don't need any software. Just your connection's properties page at "Network Connections".
As far as I know ExtraDNS is to cache DNS requests. Windows does that too, although it is flushed when you reboot or "repair" your connection.
ya i thought i have to put 2 dns only in my network connection but i can put alot :) i did't c this
Yes, you can add more alternative name servers at Advanced Settings -> DNS. :smile:
It appears ExtraDNS persistently caches requests, so that the speed-up is still there after restarting Windows. (XP's own cache is flushed when you do so)
However, having a big and old domain name cache will do more harm than good.
