So you can ping hosts on the other side of the tunnel using using a 1500 
byte packet and get a response?

C:\Users\mgrooms>ping -l 1500 10.1.2.100

You must run the VPN Trace application as administrator. Right click on 
the program icon and "Run as Administrator". At that point, you can use 
the application as intended.
