Registered users of openDNS has options to block websites of their interest. OpenDNS uses IP addresses to enforce this. AFAIK they provide a client software to update the IP address whenever it changes. I think some registered user had your current IP address last time. Suggest you to either register with openDNS or restart the router. -- Arun S.A.G http://zer0c00l.in/ _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
