LinuxInsider: "f security researcher Dan Kaminsky is right about the dangers threatening DNS security, how come nobody's drawn attention to any specific, massively mobilized exploits of the vulnerability?

It's because of the nature of DNS -- servers are indeed being continuously poisoned, according to admins, but it's hard to tell exactly who's being exploited and how."
