If one pings a ip address and gets a response back, one can start to crack
crack crack crack.... welll..you get the point, it's like a very big
bulleyes has been painted on the PC.

If someone were to tell ya the ip address of their internet connection
that does not respond to pings and you ping it, you WILL NOT get anwser
back at all. Now you got a choice, either spend a LOT of time and energy
trying to get any kind of respose or just move on since it's very unlikely
you are not going to be able to get thru.
