Thanks David, good idea, but there is a catch 22 on those sites. I ran the
check and was okay, but it said "if your ISP is re-routing your inquiries
you could still be infected even though you checked out okay" or some close
to that. Useless test IMHO. I have to assume Comcast is ahead of this one!

Subject: [WetWesties] Frydae DNS-changer attack update
The Feds are about to pull the plug Monday on their DNS server
workaround that has been foiling the DNS-changer virus. It's thought
that there are still 60k or so machines infected in the US which will
lose internet connectivity on Monday if not cleaned, so it might not
hurt to check and make sure you're not one of them. Snopes.com has
the dope including a valid checker address:
