Interesting.  A reverse DNS says this is not even a name server.  See 
below.  In addition, it refuses to perform DNS requests for me.  Perhaps, 
road runner is forcing it to respond only to IP addresses on its networks. 
>But each time that I close and reopen Firefox, RESOLV2 looks like this: 
>domain socal.rr.com 
>nameserver 76.168.0.1 
>nameserver 66.75.164.90 
>nameserver 66.75.164.90 
That is sorta odd.  I can understand this occuring after a reboot if you 
are using DHCP, but not just with a Firefox restart.  You can tell DHCP to 
ask the server to provide you with DNS addresses.  Of course, if you do 
RESOLV2 is going to be updated. 
The gory details are encoded in dhcpcd.cfg.  Option 6, IIRC, is what 
triggers the RESOLV2 update. 
I guess if you are running a dual wired/wireless setup changes in the 
wireless connnection could trigger RESOLV2 updates.
