Greetings!

BIND-PE (Berkeley Internet Name Domain - Personal Edition) http://ntcanuck.com/downloads.htm

AnalogX has a similar DNS caching server FastCache - also free. http://www.analogx.com

BIND-PE is a unique optimized (free) Domain Name Server which auto-installs in DNS Caching mode (full DNS Server capable). For Microsoft Windows® 2000/XP/NET series workstations or servers.

Benefits:

* Fail-safe DNS
* Faster web site access
* Dependable resolutions
* Access all online domains

I've seen this mentioned several times on "tweak" sites.

[color=royal blue]1. Anyone try this? Does it really make that much difference? Or are we talking microseconds?

2. How does it compare to just using a host file for regularly visited sites?
