I would never suggest arbitrarily changing your DNS Server to any old DNS. Instead use a tool that can actually tell you the best DNS in your area to use.

Steve Gibson (A GENIUS) over at Gibson Research Corporation has created just such a tool: GRC's | DNS Nameserver Performance Benchmark  

This will benchmark and tell you which DNS servers are fastest in your area... Good Stuff here!

I found a better fix than that- the garbage dump!

I cracked the machine open before I tossed it though- the
internals were starting to resemble petrified wood :D

Guess I still coulda used it for Knoppix or other Linux
but hey, I got an old lappy for that. Come to think of it, I probably
should have kept it to get more practice in on building de-militarised zones
etc- ahh well - I could probably go back to the dump and find a $5 junker,
pay the seagulls guarding it and get out of there with the same result!
