Hi Paul, 

I think you meant to reply to Ken, I only did a test after seeing his
post, and since AU is next to Asia..... 

I also run my own DNS's and dont use other, I also have many pull-ins of
nasty domains who ought be NXDOMAIN'd so dont need the services of those
types of public DNS resolvers :)
