ClearCloud works well. We used OpenDNS before and got way too many of the fake AV infections. We changed so ClearCloud and have only gotten one since, so I am very disappointed that it is going away. It sounds like that functionalit is being rolled into Vipre Premium's URL Filtering.
Poking around, I see that Comodo has a similar service at http://www.comodo.com/secure-dns I don't know anything more about it than that, so if anyone else has any input, I'd be interested in what they have to say ...Tim From: Paul Hutchings [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 10, 2011 11:55 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: DNS Services with malware blocking? Sunbelt's was ClearCloud which they're discontinuing. OpenDNS may be a little too commercial/ad-laden for my tastes. I guess that's the issue - there aren't many commercial offerings out there than I know of, but anything free has to pay its way so you end up with ads/sponsored links etc. ________________________________ From: Michael B.

Does anyone have any experience of the various DNS services out there that claim to block malicious sites? The usual stuff about layered approach etc. is understood so this is in the context of one layer. ClearCloud looked interesting but I never tried it, and as they're discontinuing it there seems little point.
