Old news - by now most of the important dns servers have been patched.

There should be a thread listing all the SA ISPs (SAIX, IS, MTN, Voda, iburst,etc) and what there DNS status is.

I tested webafrica saix now and it was rated ok, but yesterday I tried on iburst and it was rated unsafe. Will be good to know how good your ISP is.

Side note: you can just use opendns as they were recommending yesterday.
