What do you guys think of OpenDNS

Pros and cons?

Be smarter on your surfing habts and you should be safe. As far as performance goes, your ISP should provide you with a pretty fast DNS server(s). You could also use Verizon's public DNS servers: 4.2.2.1-4.

Seems pointless. I guess if your ISP has sucky DNS servers and OpenDNS has servers close to you it could be helpful. There's no real downside to it - they're staying in business just by advertising on typo search pages, so you're not installing anything. It's just another DNS server.
