I strongly advise you to install a caching DNS server and using a few RBLs.
Just a minor nit: It's not the "caching" part that's important here, it's
the "not forwarding" part. If you set up a caching DNS server that just
forwards to your ISP's DNS servers, you haven't addressed the "BL blocked
due to query volume" problem.
