Jono, I don't think this is relevant. The NTL web proxies only
intercept port 80 traffic and don't affect routeing for other protocols
(ie traceroute & SIP). If the OP's traceroute doesn't work then it
isn't a web proxy that's breaking it :)

For info, I'm on NTL and I can get to www.sipgate.co.uk OK and my
traceroute show that my traffic leaves NTL via the fran-ic-1-so-700-0
router as well.

Happy Christmas all :)
