Dear Friends,
I am having problem in blocking a pornography website: www.watchmygf.me
I have set Filtering level to High which should include Pornography.
I have also added www.watchmygf.me and watchmygf.me to individual block domains.
Apparently this website is included in OpenDNS Pornography website list but still it is accessible and not being blocked.
My router Primary & Secondary DNS is set to 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220.
Other Pornography websites are being blocked with OpenDNS bocking message.
Thanks in advance for you advice.
Cheers!

It seems your settings do not take effect. Ensure that the correct IP address information is registered at https://dashboard.opendns.com/settings/ and that you run an Updater going further. Also ensure that your DNS traffic does not go out over IPv6.
"I have also added www.watchmygf.me and watchmygf.me to individual block domains."
Not needed, watchmygf.me already covers this and all subdomains like www. And nothing is needed at all in your individual domain block list if you have the Pornography category blocked.
If you have still problems, copy & paste the complete plain text outputs of the following diagnostic commands to here:
nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com.
nslookup watchmygf.me.

Dear Rotblitz, Thanks for the kind reply. The results of the diagnostic command are below:
C:\Users\USER>nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com.
Server: dlinkrouter
Address: 192.168.0.1
*** dlinkrouter can't find debug.opendns.com.: Non-existent domain
C:\Users\USER>nslookup watchmygf.menslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com.
Usage:
nslookup [-opt ...] # interactive mode using default server
nslookup [-opt ...] - server # interactive mode using 'server'
nslookup [-opt ...] host # just look up 'host' using default server
nslookup [-opt ...] host server # just look up 'host' using 'server'

Hi Rotblitz, I just checked my router settings and found the reason why OpenDNS was not blocking the website. I had MISSED to select the OpenDNS Family Filter setting in the Parental Control of my D-Link DIR-868L Router despite setting the Primary and Secondary DNS addresses as in my original post. BINGO! The watchmygf.me and all other porn sites are very well being blocked now. Thanks to OpenDNS for making this available to us. Regards.

Great to hear!
"*** dlinkrouter can't find debug.opendns.com.: Non-existent domain"
You didn't use OpenDNS at all at this time but another DNS service.
"nslookup watchmygf.menslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com."
This is not a meaingful command for your system...
