@gsmartin, you are describing what tracert does. Why would doing it manually make any difference? If ICMP is turned off on some servers, pinging it manually won't change anything and doesn't tell you that it's a problem because it isn't.

DaveBaldwin, as I originally indicated in my initial post. I was not talking about troubleshooting firewall or server type issues that specifically block ICMP. The question is veague, so I was describing how to troubleshoot dropped packets which can not be detected by running a trace route.
I don't know what your network background is, but I've been troubleshooting network issues for over 17 years as a Cisco Network Consultant, Network/Systems Engineer, Technical IT Manager, etc...

Then it should be clear to you that the asker took one line out of a tracert listing in his original post. And he still hasn't responded to anything we've said.
Ok... You are correct. I will admit when I over looked something. That's what I get when I reply in the middle of the night when I should have been sleeping! Lol

I hate to be a party pooper - but I simply upgraded to Windows 7. All my problems gone :)
I'm not one to turn down points, but I feel a little guilty accepting these. For the sake of posterity, it would probably be more accurate to reopen the question, then accept your own comment (Win 7) as the solution.
I'm okay with that, if the other participating experts are.
