Then make sure that you aren't sending anything to the server
which would require it to know how to tell you that.   ; )
(e.g. uncheck Automatically detect settings)

Otherwise I would try doing a packet trace (e.g. using netcap
and formatting it with Ethereal) to look for more specific clues.

BTW this looks like it has more to do with your OS Networking support
than it does with IE.   Cross-posting to XP Networking.

Re: IE stops working when I start a VPN   
Do an 'ipconfig /all' at a commandprompt, and check your default gateway IP 
when connected/disconnected

If the VPN is set to remap the default gateway then all Internet traffic 
will go via the VPN. (and if the VPN doesn't provide that facility it won't 
work)

Re: IE stops working when I start a VPN   
Go into the properties of the VPN connection. 
Under networking, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click properties. 
Select Advanced. 
Under the General tabe the is an option for 'Use defailt Gateway on remote 
computer' make sure this is unticked, it will ensure browser traffic goes 
throught your gateway and not the gateway on the VPN.
Hope this is of Help.
