I am a happy OpenDNS user...i cannot vote on the poll because i dont think it has affected my internet speed yet... I love OpenDNS because of the phishing and adult material filters that it provided! Combine it with OpenDNS Updator, and you get one of the safest browsing experiences ever!

OpenDNS doesnt speed up your browsing. It only provides a filtered DNS service.
To really see a significant speed in browsing, run a local caching DNS server on your own PC or in the local network.
