Oops: Win 7 x64 and Avira AntiVir

Yesterday I was whinging about AntiVir on my Windows 7 machine. It seemed to be killing my speed to some web sites. Tonight I saw this OpenDNS System update titled, “Suboptimal Routing for Comcast Customers:”

Recent changes by Comcast caused suboptimal routing to OpenDNS for some Comcast users, leading to reduced DNS performance.  Some users affected by this problem also experienced difficulty accessing Google services.  We have adjusted our routing to correct both problems.

Oh. Heh, whoops! Perhaps my case against AntiVir was a little too circumstantial this time around…
