C:\WINDOWS\system32>ping walmart.com

Pinging walmart.com [161.170.254.20] with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.

Ping statistics for 161.170.254.20:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),

Also, why is it now that when I try to run 'ping' from a command window it gives me this 'unrecognized command' BS?? I have to run it from the exact path now...how did my path change?? MSconfig seems to be okay??

a lot of websites have programs set up for blocking ping utilities in hopes of not getting a DOS attack.

Unfortunatly it works fine here. Thankfully I closed the window before it had time to corrupt my machine.
