You're generally going to have to use alternate DNS servers.  Either Cox's
non-tainted ones, some other ISP's, your own from a dedicated box, opendns
or something....

Something that might be a nuisance, as I've not checked it on going through
cox's opt out procedure -- is if it still hands you the tainted DNS servers
via a DHCP request.  Otherwise, ya gotta specify stuff manually if you're a
non-static IP :(.
