Microsoft Online Speed Test Alternative

I keep forgetting this, but the old Microsoft Online Speed Test tool that was at http://speedtest.microsoftonline.com/ is no longer active.
The alternative tool to use is the Office365 Lync Online Transport Reliability IP Probe (TRIPP) tool, located here:
This tool performs the same set of tests that the now defunct Speed Test tool did. Oh, and Java is required to run the tests, so make sure your Java install is up-to-date with the Web plugin enabled.
