Hack DNS for lightning-fast Web browsing
Source: ComputerWorld
____________ No matter how big the broadband pipe you use to surf the Web, it's not big enough. Everyone, whether they use a slowpoke dial-up modem or the fastest FiOS line, wants to surf faster. There's a simple way you can get to Web sites faster, and it won't cost you a penny. You can hack the way your PC uses the Domain Name System (DNS), the technology underlying all Web browsing. It's far simpler to do than you might imagine, as you'll see in this article. |

NOTE TO ALL:
If you plan on trying this at work, its probably a good idea to check with the IT folks before you decide to mess around with your DNS settings. I'd imagine that could make some of them very unhappy. |
