Again, it's an OS flaw to allow one process to preempt all others, even
if there is only one CPU on the server (which is unlikely, these days).
Locking out a ping response is nearly impossible, since that requires
only trivial resources.  Your hosting company should be able to supply a
thread dump of your process, if that's the only thing stuck on the
server.  Likewise, they should be able to definitively determine what's
going on; some unfortunately, are understaffed and underequipped, and
simply try to push problems off on someone else.

If you were running out of memory, you would see exceptions in the log.
You could also turn on -verbose:gc if you want to prove that memory is
not an issue.

You could also try a tracert to the server, and see at what point in the
route the responses stop.
