Thanks,

"...OpenDNS is voluntary, and has a much bigger web address cache than ISPs. 
So is more likely to find what you were looking for than serve you a ringtone 
ad."

It almost sounded like he understood what he was talking about till I got to 
the last sentence.

There are several small UK ISPs already using such services. Depressing, still 
roll on DNSSEC (sic) which should stop them fiddling with the answers as 
much.
