DNS checking tool is of questionable value

I think this tool is of questionable value. I have tried testing from work and from home, and get results that I am using name servers that are in no way related to the ones I have entered in my system configurations. I have checked with my ISP and with our DNS server admins at work, they have patched their systems. This tells me that the tool is somehow producing bad results.
