Most day-to-day apps don't really care about ping. Attempts to
connect to 80/TCP are successful. Ping and traceroute give me !X
communication prohibited by filter.

ICMP echo and response are NOT critical Internet traffic. The
inability to send/receive is NOT an inherent indicator of network
health.

Ahh, thanks Eddy.
When the only tool you have is a hammer...<g>

I haven't received anything from the isp-lists for a couple of days, and couldn't reach isp-planet.com's nameserver, so went looking
with what I had.

Time to get *nix loaded on this new laptop I suppose...what's your favorite traceroute prog.?
