    Interesting information and questions! As far as I know Comodo Secure DNS does not use https.

    See: Encrypted connection - News / Announcements / Feedback - DNS

    I prefer something that blocks connection to known malicious sites hence my preference for Norton DNS. I had looked at OpenNIC some time ago but as far as I can work out it doesn't offer malicious site blocking.

    I see that it's one of the DNS servers that does support DNSCrypt project official homepage

    You might want to look into that. Personally I've never used it but if you want encryption it might be the answer.

    (Did you mean Comodo DNS like you said earlier?)

    How great! Will look into that in more depth at day's end. FTR the AV I use blocks known malicious sites, so not such a concern to me personally if the DNS server doesn't. Though it never hurts to have multiple layers of security and in other areas I certainly do.

    Thanks again for the helpful info and links. Very much appreciated! Cheers!

    I meant that personally I prefer Norton DNS but switched to Google DNS to see if it resolved connection issues and when it did I then switched to Comodo DNS for the time being. My intention would be to go back to Norton DNS in the near future. It does sometimes block domains that my main AV doesn't (Comodo CIS & Firewall)

    :)

    OK, gotcha! LOL... I am a little O.C. about my computer setup too... always tweaking, adjusting, preening. Computers are pets with USB ports.
