OpenDNS provides a lot more than just speed, however. Benefits include phishing and botnet protection, a content filter, and URL typo correction.

You can configure a single computer to use Open DNS or even all the computers on your network. The site provides a handy set-up guide after signing up for using the service on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, as well as routers made by companies such as Linksys and Netgear.
