True, I remember that one.  The IP stack on 9x was terribly broken.  But
they've used a new stack since Windows 2000.  Now you get a very
straight forward -
C:\Documents and Settings\adam>tracert 192.168.1.153
Tracing route to LADYDEATH.morrison.iserv.net [192.168.1.153]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
  1   <10 ms   <10 ms   <10 ms  LADYDEATH.morrison.iserv.net
[192.168.1.153]

And then there was the IP stack in WfWg,..... OH MY!  That was like
playing Jenga on a speed boat.
