Proof as to why Teksavvy is a great ISP - we posted in their forum on DSLR yesterday and by midnight they had applied the patches. That is service !
Better that the problem was avoided all together like the OpenDNS service did. If you used OpenDNS for your DNS servers you never were exposed at all.

More info on this security issue here in the BBR Security forum: »Internet flaw could let hackers take over the Web
Not to take credit away from OpenDNS, but shopkins is referring to an ISP.

When was the last time you saw an ISP be so proactive and respond so quickly to these type of issues? I know I haven't. It's good to see TekSavvy be so quick to respond and update their systems - high five to them.

DSL Extreme has been typically quick to respond.. however, they also did attempt to install Zone finder once.
