=================================================

Hi guest,

Thanks for responding. I ran the program but I don't know what an IP
address is or what it looks like. Mine lines are very different than yours
so I felt uncomfortable with posting them here in case I did post an IP
address.

The 1st line looks like 64-xxxxxxx.adsxxxxxx.net [xx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Address
line?

The 2nd line starts with distxxxxxxx-vlanxxxxxxxxx.net [xx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
Address line?

The 3rd and 4th line starts with bb1-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.net
[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Address line?

The 5th lines starts with bb2-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.net [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
Address line?

Lines 6 thru 12 are:

6 82 ms 80 ms 81 ms bb1-p13-3.linxuk.sbcglobal.net
[151.164.41.247}
7 81 ms 81 ms 82 ms ex1-p5-0.linxuk.sbcglobal.net [151.164.41.244]
8 82 ms 82 ms 217 ms bbc-gw0-linx.prt0.thdoe.bbc.co.uk
[195.66.224.103]
9 82 ms 81 ms 81 ms 212.58.238.129
10 81 ms 81 ms 81 ms 212.58.238.33
11 83 ms 83 ms 83 ms pos6-0.rt1.mh.bbc.co.uk [212.58.239.254]
12 84 ms 83 ms 83 ms bogons.mh.bbc.co.uk [212.58.228.154]
Trace complete

Also, my ISP was out of service for 3 hours tonight. I didn't know it but
when I couldn't get onto the internet, I thought it might have been because I
changed settings or ran this program, so I deleted my DSL connection and
created a new connection 2 times. After the 2nd connection failed, I called
my ISP and found out it was a problem on their end. I'm not sure if this
will affect the hops.

I'll give you any characters you need for lines 1 through 5 once you let me
know what to look for so that I won't post IP addresses.
