I also downloaded A-Tool bar and used its trace feature to Traceroute from my computer to curtin.edu.au and this time it only took 17 hops as opposed to 21 for the HowStuffWorks website.
The milliseconds taken to complete the task were a lot quicker and I'm guessing that the reason it took less hops to trace was due to the fact that it did not have to connect to any overseas routers like it did with the HowStuffWorks site, which was based in the USA.
