Do they support TCP-based DNS queries? All DNS servers (and their associated firewalls) should allow both UDP and TCP based DNS queries (both port 53), however the majority of DNS lookups are completed with UDP. The clamav.net domain now has too many responses to fit in a UDP packet, and therefore TCP mode is needed. This may be your (or Comcast's) problem.
