[SOLVED] DNS reset to default after some minutes

Hi. I'm using Arch with KDEMod 4.5, and my network manager is Wicd. I set global DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4. Everything is fine, except one thing : after using computer for some minutes (10 or more), my DNS reset to default (192.68.1.2), and I must either reconnect or edit /etc/resolv.conf manually to get my google DNS back, but then after 10 minutes or more it happen again. This has happened since I installed Arch 1 month ago.
Can anyone know how to solve this ? Thank you

[karol@black ~]$ cat /etc/resolv.conf 
# Generated by dhcpcd from eth0
# /etc/resolv.conf.head can replace this line
nameserver 192.168.1.1
# /etc/resolv.conf.tail can replace this line

If you put your DNS in /etc/resolv.conf.head or /etc/resolv.conf.tail it should stay.
