In November 2011, law enforcement arrested a group of cyber criminals believed to be behind DNSChanger, a family of malware that silently redirected infected computers and home routers to malicious DNS servers. Since shutting down the criminals, a court order was issued enabling the Internet Systems Consortium to replace the malicious DNS servers with legitimate DNS servers in order to keep the hundreds of thousands of infected web surfers online.

This effort, coordinated by the DNS Changer Working Group (aka DCWG ), will be turning off its DNS servers when the court order expires on July 9, 2012. This will knock infected web surfers who haven’t fixed the problem offline.

Last week, CloudFlare released a Visitor DNSChanger Detector app for any website using CloudFlare. Any infected visitors coming to a website with the DNSChanger App-enabled will be alerted about their vulnerability, and how they can fix it. Let your visitors know that they are infected  by turning on the app. More information about the combined forces of CloudFlare and OpenDNS you may find here:

*) This feature only works if you use our nameservers ( i.e. NS__.040services.net for your domain). For the initial rollout we do not provide assistance to sites running from their own nameservers or an external DNS service. For Managed Dedicated server owners, this service will work as well with your nameservers as long as the DNS is managed by cPanel/WHM.

**) this service is now available for our shared, reseller and semi-dedicated clients. Managed dedicated server clients may have the service installed upon request. Note for resellers: this service is not 100% white-labeled at this moment, for more information please contact our Cloudflare team.
