The answer could be meaningful since your "Adware" category blocking would return an error msg say when blocking doubleclick.net, if I read the notes on your web site correctly. If OpenDNS gets control 1st and sends an error msg, that could mess up the correct rendering of a web page with the ads stripped out.
We do a good job not messing up. At least, we try. Give it a whirl and tell me what you think.
I'll try it out as soon as the doubleclick domains get out of the "Undecided" category.

You can always block domains individually of course in your account (and whitelist them too).

I gave it a try and it looks like adblock plus gets 1st crack and then opendns domain blocking after that. See the following 4 clips to show the results:

Neither adblocking technology turned on:


Only OpenDNS domain blocking on:


Only Adblock Plus add-on turned on:


Both OpenDNS domain blocking and Adblock Plus add-on turned on:



So it looks like Firefox Adblock Plus add-on will get control 1st and if that doesn't catch it, then OpenDNS domain blocking will catch any that are missed.
