The way OpenDNS works is simple. When you configure your systems to use OpenDNS’ infrastructure, all your DNS queries will pass through it’s web filtering system and only direct you to legitimate websites.
If you miss-type a legitimate websites’ URL, OpenDNS systems will prevent you going to a possible infected sites and suggest the right URL to you.
