Resolving host problem in Ubuntu

There is a problem in Ubuntu where browsers will hangs for a few seconds, displaying "resolving host..." before displaying your requested page (this was one of the reasons I aborted a previous flirtation with linux). It is connected with DNS and IPv6 apparently.

Anyway, I've found a cure, here. Basically it involved using Google's DNS servers - I was using my routers originally.
