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.
