DNS Cache Poisoning Attack?

[GameTanx]

Today i got a weird alert from my ESET Smart Security's firewall.
Detected DNS Cache Poisoning Attack on the IP address 59.185.3.11

Is this serious? What happened exactly? Is that DNS Server infected?
I just started using this DNS Server today and got that warning within an hour (I reset my router yesterday since i could not login to the router page)
Now i have switched to the DNS server 59.185.3.10
Please comment.

Will changing from MTNL DNS servers to Open DNS or Google DNS affect online gaming?Will there be lag?Btw now i got the same alert for the other DNS server too (59.185.3.10)Whats going on? Is anyone else having this problem?

MTNL DNS servers are problematic. Use the DNS servers mentioned in this thread bySaurav

DNS cache poisoning is a hacking attack and is not the problem of DNS servers. The given ip address 59.185.3.11 is the attackers ip.
what you should do is


[*] Open Command Prompt (Type cmd in run and press Enter)
[*] Type: ipconfig /flushdns
[/list]This will flush your dns cache.
Also Full scan your computer with updated Eset Antivirus and a good anti-spyware like anti-malwarebytes or any other software also scan for any rootkit with the kaspersky Tdsskiller (Freely available on kaspersky website).

Hope that helps.
