A week or 2 ago I thought you mentioned you were running your own DNS
caching server. If you are running your own, you don't need worldaxes.com
DNS servers.  You need 127.0.0.1 or your IP in /etc/resolv.conf

Another alternative is tell your pro MS ISP that you don't run MS and you
need some DNS IP's.  I know the guy who started worldaxes and he is very
pro MS. He also idolizes Bill Gates and boasts of how he got a return
email from him once.
