Are you sure? There is currently a DNS flaw out in the open waiting to be exploited. The scary thing about this flaw is that you may be completely oblivious to it. You will type a web address into your browser, hit Enter, and arrive at the page you expect. Problem is, are you really at the real site? All the signs seem to suggest you are. And yet, you may be about to send your password to a phishing site halfway across the world.

Patches are available, but has your DNS server been patched? For most users, this responsibility lies with your ISP. Fortunately, there is something you can do. DoxPara Research is providing a DNS Checker that will enable you to test whether the DNS server you’re using is vulnerable to this particular flaw. If the DNS server is found to be vulnerable, consider using OpenDNS instead.

The full details on the vulnerability is currently hard to come by as everyone is hush-hush about it in order to allow more time for people to patch up their DNS servers.
