Irene,
You need to change your rule to allow for the return
ICMP. Your ping or traceroute goes out and when
the reply comes back, it get's dropped. You should see
this in your logs.
If your going to do this with rules, then uncheck the
policy properties Accept ICMP(but wait until you fix
this isse.)
Be aware, that if you take my advice above, there are
other ICMP return codes that you're going to watch out
for - one's you'll probably need.
See http://www.phoneboy.com/fw1/faq/0066.html,
http://www.phoneboy.com/fw1/faq/0230.html,
or better yet, just go to www.phoneboy.com and look
up ICMP.
