Cool Can I add that as an alternative to my ISP's DNS in my Active Directory, or should I just push that out through DHCP?

Feel free to and the ClearCloud DNS server as a replacement to your existing DNS: http://clearclouddns.com/ Its still beta, but I think youll find it works quite well. And its free.

My users keep managing to infect themselves with it, and were having trouble stopping it. They dont run with admin rights, so theres no real damage done to their systems and we can clean it up in about two minutes. But the time adds up, and Im tired of my technicians having to waste time on it. Our antimalware software is Microsofts Forefront Client Security, and its having a tough time catching this. Every time I get infected, I send the EXE to Microsoft and they update their definitionsbut the EXEs used by the malware apparently change rapidly, and seem to constantly be a step ahead of FCSs definitions. I can think of a couple of options that I know would stop it, like blocking all EXEs at our web filter or using group policy to limit the running of EXEsbut this would also prevent users from doing things like installing safe plug-ins from websites, so its not a first resort. Suggestions?
