More likely, you've a doubtful TCP/IP stack; what are you running?  There
have been some complaints, but always from people who weren't even able to
tell us what they're running, beyond 'Windows' or 'DOS'.

That traceroute is about correct.  Demon is indeed hooked up via
sprintlink.  There are also two other connections (that I'm aware of), but
traffic between demon and non-UK endpoints will most often go via
sprintlink.  Reason't a bit disgusting: Some people didn't want to
cooperate with each other, basically.
