I understand, but based on Dave's scenario, there is still the need
to 'poison' the DNS first and that requires at least a few things to
happen.
I'm just trying to verify that if the client is affected that
clearing the cache will get them back to square one - until the next
poisoning occurs.
Not a solution of course, just a question.

Thanks,

Unless the source DNS server is fixed, the poisoned information
will just be
re-cached on the client.
