VPN connection disconnects me from ISP...

Hello,

Im running ME on one of my machines, and XP, 2000 on a
couple others. The XP and 2000 machines work fine,
however, the ME machine.. When I connect to the
internet.. As soon as I connect to VPN for my company, I
drop my connection to my ISP. Any ideas? Im running a
cable modem...

The problem is probably that the VPN connection has a default gateway
specified. Internet access uses the default gateway, so that would
disable Internet access through your ISP.
