I agree, but that is how it works in Panther. Give it a shot. Use Internet Connect to connect to a PPTP VPN network. Then try to go anywhere in Safari or download mail with Mail.app. When I do it, I get nothing. I have to disconnect from the VPN to get regular internet connectivity back. As I mentioned before, you can avoid this on Windows by disabling the "use default gateway on remote network" option.
