Wow. That does like neat! :banana: :banana:

I wish it was in a .zip instead of .exe though... I always prefer .zip for some reason... :banghead: I guess it is because I have more knowledge of what is inside and where everything is. :)

what about neotrace? Does the one that you put a link to have a visual map of the world and where the trace is going?


also, can you use this for hacking ;)

In this case it's better to be .exe, it's a stand alone application, no installer. I wish all software would be like this, just copy it where you want and it will always work, even after a clean install.

Neotrace is good too, but I think it's not free. Of course, most people can get a "trial" of it and it does the job. :P

Sort of. Good for knowing what routers and equipement your connection goes through to get somewhere. So say you realize it does not go through any US servers, than you could give yourself a gurantee that if you hack into anything, you won't have the FBI after you with very large guns. :D
But I've heard something that no matter where you connect, your connection will go through USA servers. If you're in the US, than, it will always START there and leave the country if you are connecting, say in Afghanistan. (they have slow servers there! Took me about 5 minutes on adsl to load their official taliban page, I forget the url)

for windows, tracert works just fine. ;)

in red hat linux, /usr/sbin/traceroute works dandy too. ;)
