Re: People will still complain...

They haven't "solved" anything. They're still trying to capitalize on mistyped URLs. People are still going to be reformatting windows looking for spyware that they don't have.

The issue never *affected* me to begin with since I think I have verizon's DNS servers plugged into my router. It's the sheer concept of DSLX instituting server-side spyware that turns my stomach. Giving people a backdoor pass to an old backup DNS server they haven't corrupted yet is hardly a resolution to the issue.

To say they "set this server up to solve the issue" is misleading. That DNS server has been there since I subscribed to the service. It used to be the recommened DNS #2 entry.
