Windows tracert sends ICMP requests, while Unix/Linux traceroute sends UDP packets bound for UDP high ports.  Use the tracert command from Gaia/Linux and it will work, you must be blocking UDP high ports somewhere in the path but not ICMP echo requests.

Edit: Windows tracert expects to get ICMP echo replies as responses, while Unix traceroute expects to receive Destination/Port unreachable responses.  So those latter types of responses could be getting blocked.
