first of all is it clear to you how traceroute works?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traceroute

On Unix-like <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix-like> operating systems,
the traceroute utility by default uses User Datagram
Protocol<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Datagram_Protocol>
 (UDP) datagrams <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datagram> with destination port
numbers <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_number> from 33434 to 33534. The
traceroute utility usually has an option to specify use of ICMP echo
request (type 8) instead, as used by the
Windows<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows>
 *tracert* utility.

does this answer to your question?
