    Looks like a MTU problem. I suggest you ping with different packet sizes and see
    which is the smallest size that doesn't get throught. Some web servers use the
    Don't Fragment bit on, and packets get discarted.

    If the application you are interested in works right, maybe it be worth to made
    some batch on the XP side to alter the routing table so the default route
    doesn't point to the VPN.

    Good luck.

    Fernando.
