Re: Running your own DNSchanger proxies

As an intellectual exercise, I think this is interesting and worth the
effort.  As an actual implementation, I think it's more effective to block
DNS traffic to the affected subnets. Let the breakage occur, and then let
the end users get their broken machines fixed rather than let them continue
hobbling along with this hack in place.
