The thing that frightens me the most is the thought of thousands being unable to access the internet. I don't know what I'd do without the internet! It's a truly terrifying thought.

hmm im still a bit baffled by this.. it seems to depend on individual computers.. not the ISP or your modem itself. so i guess if youre rich, or have money to spare, you can just buy a new computer.. OR you can jump through loops with your ISP or learn to fix it yourself.

You can check your DNS Server on the following link.....

DNS Resolution = GREEN

Your computer appears to be looking up IP addresses correctly!

Had your computer been infected with DNS changer malware you would have seen a red background. Please note, however, that if your ISP is redirecting DNS traffic for its customers you would have reached this site even though you are infected. For additional information regarding the DNS changer malware, please visit the FBI's website at:

The heat, no internet, could be interesting. I predict rampant zombie-ism in the streets, not only in Florida.
