Fully expanded, it reads 'Internet Control Message Protocol: Time To Live
exceeded in transit'. It means that a packet being transferred to the
remote machine passed through too many other machines en route - the TTL
field in the ICMP header of each packet specifies the maximum number of
'hops', or machines the packet passes through along the way, before the
packet gets discarded. It helps guard against circular routing errors
amongst other things.
