Your ISP has probably turned tracert and ping off to users
on their systems. I know that my ISP, has done so. You can
call and ask them about the features that they have turned
off.

Also, many companies turn ping off so that they will not be
vulnerable to DoS attacks. Microsoft does turn it off.
Yahoo has not the last time I checked. Tracert should
report up to the last jump.

Try turning off the Windows Firewall. I've been seeing more cases where
the SP2 firewall default settings have disabled ICMP.
