opendns
http://opendns.org might be usefull for when NTLS dns is playing up...
although i set it as my DNS on my mac and when i goto the welcome page it still says i'm not using their service? but maybe thats becuase port 80 goes though the proxies? 
either that or the mac is ingoring the setting and using the DNS server set in the router (which i can't access)

Re: opendns
They do indeed use NTL's own DNS

so if http proxy servers use NTL dns for web browsing, what is the point of changing DNS ?
apart from using stuff like p2p programs as such which use diffarent ports to resolve addresses ?

For web browsing, there is no point. Something that we have tried to point out on more than one occasion.
