Its not safaricom alone, try www.kdn.co.ke I think they drop ICMP packets since even ping doesn't work. It doesn't mean the site is down though. -- Regards, Job Njogu Muriuki, Phone: (+254) - 772333075 | 736333075 Skype: heviejob | Yahoo: heviejob Address: 42665 00100 Nrb
... 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.
