I think they now use a "load balancing" system so that you don't have this problem. Anyway, even if you do a tracert (I use PingPlotter), that still doesn't guarantee you've got a fast server, just the route with the fewest hops to that server, and if one of those hops has a cantankerous router, you'd be better off taking another 5 hops somewhere else, so watch those response times!

Do you still use PCQuotes?
