hi chris,

a few things. what does the -l option stand for ? try using traceroute
without any options.

if your computer is connected in a network which is administered by
someone else, make sure they dont have a firewall. to check this you can
first do a traceroute to one of the machines in the network. if that works
then you probably are behind a firewall.

cheers,
rahul.
