I used Central Ops. net to traceroute from my location to the Curtin server. I found it very easy to use and also interesting. I am not a computer guru, so to be actually informed where it passes through to get to the final destination is interesting. There is also another program called Visual Route which is more interesting and informative, as it shows you visually rather than just numbers, where the information travels on a world map!
