[vpn-help] Conflict between ShrewSoft VPN Client and VirtualBox

Hi,

I installed VPN Client v2.1.6 on a Windows 7 x64 machine that also have
VirtualBox 3.1.2 installed.

The VPN worked right after the installation, but after my computer rebooted
I lost the dns (which is, I could access the internet but no name
resolving). A few trials and errors shown that stopping the ShrewSoft DNS
Proxy Daemon fixed the problem. Obviously, stopping this service every time
I disconnect from the VPN isn't very practical.

I later found that uninstalling VirtualBox fixed it completely, I do not
have to stop the DNS Proxy service to get a fully functionnal internet
access.

There seem to be a conflict between those two, what do you think?

Thanks,

Alexis Bilodeau
