That is normal, Google uses AKADNS as a provider for DNS, if you try to ping
www.google.com, you will return an AKADNS server. It is based on Akamai
technology that is a form of decentralizing services. Or so I understood
from a quick research of it and a fes DNS lookups. Hope this helps. - Marc

Subject: [isalist] ISA 2004 URL Sets mystery


http://www.ISAserver.org

Can anybody try this on ISA 2004? 
 
Create access rule for HTTP HTTPS which will block web access to predefined
URL Set   containing record http://*.akadns.net <http://*.akadns.net/>   or
*.akadns.net
Apply changes and then try to browse to not cached www.google.com
<http://www.google.com/>  or www.yahoo.com <http://www.yahoo.com/> 
And tell me if you pass through.  In my test network *.akadns.net blocks
www.google.com <http://www.google.com/>  . If I change it to *.akadna.net
its ok :-)
I tested this on 2 different ISA2004 boxes. 
 
Thanx David Farinic
