All trace route implementations return ICMP time-exceeded. That's how it 
works. It's also not too relevant since it's probably the incoming packets 
he's more concerned about.

Cisco (and Unix) are different from Microsoft in that the incoming trace 
route packets from these operating systems are UDP packets to a port number 
in the 33,000 - 43,000 range. Windows sends pings.
