4 edits | You can use OpenDNS without redirection to ad page ... ... on typos.
If you really don't want to be redirected to a search page with ads when making a typo on a domain name, you can still do that with OpenDNS.
You can sign up for a FREE account and then set up the option to turn off "typo correction". You go in to the Dashboard at www.opendns.com and select "settings" and then "typo corrections" and then uncheck the box "enable typo correction".
This turns off all redirection and returns the standard browser error page. OpenDNS then acts as a std DNS server you can use to bypass ISP DNS servers that use DNS redirection.
But if you turn off typo correction, then none of the blocking capabilities will work either.
Directions are here on how to setup OpenDNS DNS servers on your system:
