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


i tried to run it under SAFE mode in case some app might be restricting

it from functioning but to no use i even replaced the utility with the

original one from my installation disk but even that didn't work out.
but it seems theres some problem with the utility itself because i
downloaded a 3rd party pinging utility and it worked just fine!


note: i have tested my firewall and antivirus options..they r not
interfering.
-i have nod32 installed


guys pls help me out..this little problem is driving me nuts as not
much info is available for this type of problem on net.


Thanks

I don't think it's a good idea to start three separate threads
for the one question.
