I went back to using Treewalk http://ntcanuck.com/ after using OpenDNS http://www.opendns.com/ for awhile. When I was using Open DNS, I would be getting these short sporadic outages in my IM programs, e-mail, and web browsing. After I re-installed Treewalk, the latter problems disappeared.
Just a heads-up to others considering using Open DNS.
