... interestingly, i can load up the site, but the tracert and ping
times-out just like yours.

I guess they set it up like that for security.... u cant ping-flood
it, and you cant trace any of the nodes that connect directly to it.

... i guess you can't easily DOS safcom...

... then again, i was able to telnet to the webserver, so i guess you
could DOS it with connection attempts to its port 80.

anyhows, the site is up. may be their "hide-my-ass" setup is
preventing your particular IP from accessing the site, but from
kenyaweb, i can see it.
