Google DNS Tested

I have been testing Google’s DNS services recently, it seems very solid.  My main reasons for using it over my ISP’s default DNS services is that I don’t want a 404 search page, where I get a page of adverts and some search results presented to me when I ping or navigate to a web page that doesn’t exist.

I heard that Steve Gibson had made a DNS bench mark too for Windows in assembler, it is about 150Kbs,  the results for google are very good, this is a representation of the speed from the program. The top result, 194.168.4.100 is Virgin Media’s secondary DNS server, it is the fastest but does the 404 search thing
