Works fine here on XPSP1. Did you install any other major update of windows?

* Kryptonate slaps Mike2, can't you see the screenshot?
around a bit with a large trout.Works fine for me too and I've got everything updated. So it's not one of the updates that's causing the problem. Have you installed something new before the problem began?

if it's an exe/com, it could have been infected. do a search through your files

Did you verify that C:\WINDOWS\system32\tracert.exe exists? If so, what happens if you do this:
C:\> cd windows\system32
C:\WINDOWS\system32> tracert
?

C:\WINDOWS\system32\tracert.exe does exist...
When I do what you suggested this happens;
Edit: Also the ping command doesn't work...

I suppose you don't want to switch the directory every time though... try opening a command prompt, typing "path" and hitting Enter. Is "C:\WINDOWS\system32" listed there?
