Re: Eastlink DNS Hijacking...

opting out only disables this for a limited time.

Eastlink support guy said that "this is a corporate decision" and I had no options other than to switch ISPs... (thanks...)

I've created a simple script to continually "opt out"
#!/bin/bash
wget -O /dev/null »searchmanager.eastlink.ca /optout.php?brand=eastlink&lang= 2> /dev/null

Two options I think will work.
1) a cron job run every minute or so like calling the above script

2) a while true loop running the above script as follows:
(while true; do bin/optOutEastlinkSearch.sh; sleep 10; done)
