Try the Custom filtering option and select the specific categories you need to block.
I don't recall it taking more than an hour to see the results, but it a
few months ago. OpenDNS is gaining popularity so may be slowing down.

Thanks for the replies...
My external IP of my firewall is registered with them and I have my
Content Filtering setting in the OpenDNS dashboard set to low. I've set
the forwarders on all my internal DNS boxes and in my firewall to their
IP addys. Even when I specify a porn site to block like pictureview.com
it lets it through. I figure I'm doing something wrong but I can't
find an error. And playboy.com comes through too.

I just used my external IP address for both networks I've configured
with OpenDNS. Selecting the Adult category blocks those sites just
fine.
Are you getting any filtering at all? Does your edge device forward to
another DNS server perhaps?

Hello all...
I've just changed to OpenDNS yesterday. However I'm having a heck of a
time getting the adult site blocking to work. I've followed all the
instructions and guides from the forums and knowledge base but still no
joy. Has anyone had this problem and know a solution?
I've sent email to tech support but that was yesterday and still no
response.
Thanks in advance for a any tips/advice.
