Itrace is a program that implements traceroute(1) functionality using ICMP echo request packets. Therefore, it looks like you are just pinging your target while you traceroute there. It often helps tracing behind firewalls.

command: itrace -i eth1 -d yahoo.com

eth1 being your ethernet device.

That’s it.
