More likely an error on opendns.com - you are not going via a proxy to here.

its relatively known that opendns proxy google requests and no doubt other sites to "protect the user" (assuming you're using opendns :p:)

Could be an issue with the proxy detection on whatever these sites are.

Go to www.whatismyip.com and see what that provides, if it's your own IP address there's no proxy in use.
