Found this whilst trawling my usual YouTube haunts. It made me smile.

A Star Wars geek obviously did this...

tracert -h 66 216.81.59.173

(if this is total gobbledy gook to you, open a command window (CMD.EXE in start/run or windows/search programs and files) and type it in)

Edited. Somehow there was a '?' after the 66 causing the error. **twilight zone music**
