Re: How does Google direct my IP to Australia?

In news:1168002596.887324.270100@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
Bob <investor@xxxxxxxxxx> stated, which I commented on below:

Thanks. I am not using any proxy settings in IE.
I am in a full AD environment.
My internal DNS points to XO communications' resolvers at 65.106.1.196
65.106.7.196
The real oddity here is that the problem goes away if I disconnect my
XO line without making any other changes to my network (I failover to
my other ISP).
Thanks again.

I assume by saying that your "internal DNS points to..." means they are your
forwarders and not configured in any machines' IP properties.

Remove those forwarders, and try only 4.2.2.2.

The reason it works when you disconnect XO is because it can't use the
forwarders (assuming that's what you meant above), therefore it uses the
Roots.
