Actually I have no idea why it works so great. In general all sites seem to load faster. But the videos in Youtube don't. Bu on the other hand I didn't use it long enough maybe.
I configured it in my router that seems to work nicely.
Eezdva and BJM-
Looks like we are narrowing in on this YouTube issue. Can you please reply (in a private message) with your IP address? We'd like to see if the problem is localized to specific geographic areas. Thanks, Dan
I'm sorry for not making myself clear.
I mean Norton DNS has detected:
Thread: Embedded link to malicious site newhua.com
Location : vista123.com/vistamaster/
I'm suggesting that Norton DNS should only block the embedded link,
and not the entire website, because beside the above embedded link,
the website still consider safe, right? 
Thanks.

I like your suggestion...but, the website in this specific instance at this specific time is deemed unsafe because of the SafeWeb rating. Pointing to > Embedded Link To Malicious Site
Malicious Web Site Blocked
You attempted to access:
edit malicious link > vista one two three dot com
This is a known malicious web site. It is recommended that you do NOT visit this site. The detailed report explains the security risks on this site.
For your protection, this web site has been blocked. Visit Symantec to learn more about phishing and internet security.
Hi boon_016,
Unfortunately, with Norton DNS we are not able to provide blocking at the URL level as Norton DNS provides IP address lookup for host/domains - not URL. In your example, the browser sends a IP address lookup request for vista123.com to Norton DNS. Since vista123.com is a site that has been detected to distribute malware, instead of returning the IP address for vista123.com, Norton DNS displays the block page.
Thanks,
Khanh
I'm actually talking to the team about removing the language block this week. I should know more by EOD Wednesday about that decision.
Strange, it works fine here in Holland
Stu,
You installed the client to a Dutch version of Windows? Or just that Norton DNS worked in Holland?
last one. Why?
Zoli was referring to the first. Configuring the DNS entries manually should work pretty much anywhere. Installing the client on a non-English OS is currently blocked, but I'm working on removing that block.
Since we released Norton DNS away from Beta, and we have a planned Phase 2 coming I wanted to touch basis with the gurus. I wanted to get an idea of any problems that you see or potential problems. I welcome any ideas that any of you might have on how best to approach issues for this product.
Erik,
One issue I have noticed with Norton DNS (and others that I have tested) is that the webmail for a user's current ISP will hang and not connect. Is there any way to have the installer "copy" the current ISP DNS settings and place the Norton DNS first, with the ISP DNS listed after that?
I hadn't heard that one. Does this happen only with certain ISP's? The page hangs or the browser? Where are you located? Right now the Norton DNS installer is pretty minimal (read "dumb"). If the DNS settings aren't explicitly configured it'll be unable to do something like that. The other issue is that Norton DNS takes advantage of 2 DNS IP's to try and handle geo location caching issues. What you suggest would require picking one Norton DNS server and keeping the ISP DNS server if it's able to figure that out.
I can make the suggestion for a possible enhancement, but I think we'd need reproducible test cases or at least more information to help show the need.
I have recently been trying Different DNS sevices. I tried Norton DNS,Clear Cloud,Open DNS and Google DNS. I use Norton 360 v5 as my security. What I would really like to know is there REALLY a difference ? The speeds all seem to be the difference a couple of Micro seconds either way make no difference to me. Is there really added security with one over the other ? Or lack of security ?
Well that's my question.
P.S... What would be really Cool would be if Norton or one of the forum membesr made a Norton Security Wallpaper for the Desktop. Maybe have a contest or something. Get a few choices to pick from.

Do Norton DNS support IPv6?
