    I like the fact that such warnings can be ignored and can be entered into that site. So I am still using that.

    Is that better or worse than Norton DNS?

    This is quite hard to say, at least you can try with namebech to see which one is the fastest

    That namebench worked well. It said that my ISP verizon boston was 15.4% faster than comodo DNS. Of course thats like 6 ms faster. The human eye blinks approx 200-300 ms. So in the blink of an eye I can be better protected.

    Cool app. Thanks for posting. Oddly enough, Google DNS is supposed to be the fastest for me.

    It wil use the first one and only use the second one if the first one is down etc.

    I still find clearcloud dns the best DNS in blocking bad websites. Second is Norton DNS.
     
  12. This is only a brand new feature to Comodo SecureDNS guys. :)

    All issues will be fixed and it will be improved, thanks to user feedback. ;)

    Hi:

    Actually in the youtube video tests of new comodo, norton and clearcloud DNS malware protection tests I seen showed that clearcloud was the winner. Compared to the test from all the malware links tested New comodo DNS failed on all, Norton DNS missed 2 malware sites and clear cloud by sunbelt blocked everyone of the links and passed 100% (winner). So if you want a good DNS then I suggest try it.
    clearcloud DNS: (http://clearclouddns.com/)
    74.118.212.1
    74.118.212.2

    Youtube tests from yesterday test

    Reading this thread piqued my interest.
    I've bypassed Comodo SecureDNS in favor of Sunbelt ClearCloud.

    So far, so good.
    I have it running in IE 7 which is running in Sandboxie 3.46 with no problems and no system slowdown that I'm aware of.
    Several sites have already been blocked. Very cool !

    I'll try Comodo SecureDNS in a few days, but as for now, I tend to trust Sunbelt over Comodo when it comes to security software.
