I read the article about OpenDNS with interest as it looked like a simple way of solving a couple of minor concerns, primarily my teenage son spending too much time (in my view anything in excess of a nanosecond is too much!) on Faecesbook. It looked too good to be true, and is is often the case, it was.

Unfortunately the DNS settings on the router are preset and can't be changed, and I can't work out how (if possible) to do it on my browser (FF) but if I can change them on the browser he could change them back. For what it's worth he uses Chrome and also accesses it via his mother's Ipad. Anyway it's a losing battle as kids are always light years ahead when it comes to things like this.

That said, thanks for an informative and interesting article, and it will solve a problem for me at one of the sites I work at where I have been put in charge
of their network (in the land of the blind ....!) and they will expect me to stop employees accessing certain sites.
