Hi All,

I am running WinXP on my home computer and have a PPTP VPN connection  from
my home (cable modem on my end) to my workplace. It works fine except for
one thing. As soon as my PPTP is active, I lose all ability to use IE and
cannot connect to the internet at all.

Is there some way I can fix this? Is this a function of PPTP itself, or a
function of the way my workplace firewall is set up. This mutual exclusivity
is frustrating. Surely there must be some way to use my VPN and the internet
at the same time?

All advice appreciated.

Michael
