Hi Andrew,

This is a VERY good example of why you should avoid OpenDNS or any other DNS 
service that returns bogus data when queried for non-existing hosts. They 
create 
confusion and breaks the principle of least surprise. Run your own caching 
resolver instead and prime it with knowledge of the root servers instead.

Best regards,
