traceroute command anywhere?

[Robert Body]

Thanks Brian, I tried traceroute in Windows, didn't work, but with your 
tracert command suggestion it works. I get this output:

Trace complete.

if 486ms starts at entry 13, but is still at 20, can I say that 20 is 
playing a part in the horrible delay?

If I run ping:

I get 500ms almost ping, it should be 100 normally. Upload of data is at 
4.2K, it should be 40K, and the website host company is telling me they're 
pinging my website at 80ms and all is good, but it's not. (host is Velcom)
So can I say from the tracert that they are indeed slowing things down, them 
being the last in the chain at 20?

Thanks
