One Care breaks VPN

Was troubleshooting a laptop today that vpn via pptp was not working on Vista and was producing a dialog box referencing a failure with error 800

Event logs was showing rasclient with event id 20227.

Turns out that the computer has OneCare installed which has its own firewall settings and pptp and vpn were unchecked. checked them and it is now connecting with vpn fine
