VPN dial connects, but does not work

Does that make sense?

I am using a Dell M90 laptop running XP, and using Comcast from home.
I am connected to the comcast modem directly. I am not going though
any sort of wireless router/NAT device.

The VPN was configured for me in Arlington, Virgina. I am in Denver,
Colorado.

When I tried the VPN from my office in Arlington, it worked. When I
tried from my home in Denver, the VPN seemed to connect, I did not get
any error messages, but it wouldn't work. I can not connect to any of
the secure sites. I just get a "Page not found" error.

It would be difficult for me to get the laptop back to Arlington.
Although, that is what the tech support people want. Comcast will not
give me any help.

Is there anything I can try?
