Why a .cm typo might not correct to .com

OpenDNS does not correct the typo ".cm" in the few cases (200-300 domains) where Cameroon has a registered domain name.

To turn off the filtering off the .cm wildcard, change this preference (Enable filtering of .cm wildcard, on by default) from the Manage Typo Corrections setting of the OpenDNS Dashboard.

To use the OpenDNS Dashboard, you need a free account and a verified network.
