   I am not familiar with your particular VPN client but VPNs in general   
   add some overhead to the transmitted packets.  Sometimes adjusting down   
   the MTU will solve problems where an application (e-mail, FTP, etc) will   
   work until you attempt a transfer that will cause the packet size to   
   become too large and can result in a broken application or bad performance.   
      
   Some VPN solutions adjust for this.  Does the problem occur uploading   
   when you are not attached to this VPN?
