Thanks Tom,
I did a search for a suitable Firefox plug-in, but couldn't find one with the full functionality you described for your plugin. Pity, as your description ticks every box - monitoring, and warning on critical sites without forcing retention of possibly outdated dns addresses. If you had a commercial variant I'd buy it -- sorry I can't afford £2500!
I think I'll just stick to pdnsd using the OpenDNS server -- they claim to be fully cache poisoning resistant to the recent exploits. Having read the Kaminsky details and discussions IMO something which relies on two sets of randomization for security has a long term vulnerability if ever a blackhat succeeds in reverse engineering the central security hash for BIND on a particular server implementation. Good luck with your commercial venture, I think it has sales potential for quite some time!

The trouble with my utility is that it has an annoying tendency to crash to browser every 5 minutes (not really sure why - im a bit of a noob with FF plugins).
I'll have a look at it over this weekend see if I can narrow things down....
Cheers,
Tom
