Many commercial servers will block both Ping and traceroute attempts. The ports used for these utilities have been hijacked by hackers and exploitesd, hence the corporate lockdown. That is usually why you get timeout errors these days. Used to be timeouts indicated heavy traffic...it ain't necessarily so now.
All I can say is that I do not have this problem at all, from work or home.
Of course I am usualy browsing and not posting these days.
