tracert is a CLI command. In other words, you need to type it into a "command window." There's an icon for the CLI window buried somewhere in the "all programs" window. It's a box that looks something like
[C:\]
However, I find it easiest to open it from the Run command.
Specifically:
Open the Start menu
Select the Run menu
In the new Run window, in the Open: field, type
cmd
and then either [Enter] or select the [OK] button.
In the new "command window", type the command
tracert
http://www.shatters.net
It'll probe each of the network routers between your system and shatters.net and tell you how long it took to get a response. It'll look up the name of each of those routers, too, which can take a while. Eventually it'll list
http://www.shatters.net.
Does this help?
