Cox used to allow non-authorative DNS queries, and I got some obviously 
poisoned (phishing) cache data.

I believe Cox, unlike Qwest, allows you to query via port 53 THROUGH their 
network, so I would use some of the public (less obviously insecure, and 
unstable) DNS servers?

Google public DNS servers for more information.

Heck, you can even get a dyndns.org account and application that will 
automatically update; they offer automatic domain updates so you can run a 
website from your house on port 8080 (they filter port 80 down) and have URL 
cloaking so yourdomain.com runs out of your house!

Netgear and LinkSys (now Cisco) "routers" often have dyndns.org configurations 
(or you can use OpenWRT <just kidding>)?

So, the upgrade may have been worth it. There's still a slight delay for
DNS lookup, but actually site loading is flying by now. It was bad for
awhile. Now it's much better.

So, kudos to Cox for updating the routing. 

Of course, my opinion may vary should it go bad again.
