The first one is clearly a routing problem. It gets destination unreachable on the last hop. I haven't looked at the others, but I suspect the same.

Port 53 requests are being intercepted at network level, that is the same method used by Parental Controls.

It does not matter whether you use OpenDNS or any other DNS services that use the standard port 53, they will still be intercepted.

The only way around it is to have software on your computer, which passes DNS requests over a different port. DNSCrypt created by OpenDNS does just that.
