    I just noticed today that OpenDNS is blocking some Flash Payer content like in Myspace. Anyone noticed this or other stuff its blocking. I don't even have any custom lists in my account, just the usual phishing, but I disabled all of them, and not even like that. I had to remove OpenDNS IP's from my computer and then it worked.

    I've never noticed any blocking problems with OpenDNS, gave up on them only because I saw no improvement in horrendous "looking up ..." delays after upgrading to DSL.

    Well this is only a recent problem as I barely noticed it yesterday and I hadn't noticed it some weeks ago. I removed OpenDNS as well.

    Hi,

    Do you have and use a OpenDNS account?

    I sure do gerard as I mentioned in my first post. I already turned everything off in there and still it didn't work.

    What happens when you renew your dynamic IP address?

    It's possible that filters are active for some IP address, and you happen to get such address.

    I already tried everything, but it just seems that when I use the OpenDNS IP's for DNS lookup, I get those errors of stuff not loading.
