I am looking to place an application between the browser
(IE/Firefox/Opera) and the Windows Resolver for the purpose of
translating DNS queries. Can this be done? proxy?

Any help on this would be appreciated.

I am looking to do this in windows XP professional/home and I would
like to affect IE6/7, Firefox 1.5/2 and Opera. By this I mean that all
of them would use the same system wide resolver and not separate ones
(I would hope); therefore, I should be able to intercept these DNS
queries at some bottleneck.

The application will manipulate DNS queries before they are sent to the
resolver. I am not sure if this can be done except to create a local
proxy that will translate and then forward the manipulated DNS queries.

Any ideas?
