The DNS fix

As many of us did apply the DNS fix on our personal computers (not on a
network) I somehow have missed how we can find out for sure if our ISPs have
taken care of this at their end.

Can't help but think that it will do us little people much good if the ISP
hasn't applied the fix at their end.

Is there a way to find this out?

Thanks, much. Apparently my mail server is safe, but my mail server's mail
server is vulnerable. Not sure what's involved in "Open DNS" - will look it
up.

Thanks for the URL.

Don't rely on one test. Try here, too:
https://www.dns-oarc.net/oarc/services/dnsentropy
or, it's numerical equivalent, here:
http://149.20.3.33/test/

I really appreciate this. We have enough trouble without having problems
like this.
