[Need Info] Insight's DNS Servers are open to attack in NKY?

Anyone who is using the insight DNS servers are vulnerable to malicious people to impersonate almost any website on the Internet. I've switched to opendns since they are safe from this kind of attack. I don't know if this vulnerability is system wide or not. »www.doxpara.com/ is the place to check to see if they are open to attack. After checking the DNS Servers in my area they showed they were not patched.

Some of you have expressed concern about DNS vulnerability. Insight is constantly monitoring our system for security vulnerabilities and acting to close them. DNS servers must be accessible by all users, but our continuous efforts to add security began well before this recent concern was raised, with our practice of flushing DNS cache more then the industry average, and work in progress to add additional protection as well as to apply the patch some have written about. Still, at the end of the day, the best protection is continuance vigilance. Insight provides that.
