Ok, did some more testing and here is what I found. Jim you are correct,
my first statement was wrong "ping 192.168.1.2 should return packets
from 192.168.1.2 not an IP addr that belongs to TuCows domain"

When I ping 192.168.1.2 I *DO* get packets returned from 192.168.1.2

When I ping *ANY* host_name on my internal LAN while VPN'd in, I get
this...
FROM HOME NETWORK (VERIZON FiOS)

PING NT1

I have captured a ping with Network Monitor 3.3, what should I look for,
I do not see the 64.99.80.30 IP addr any where in the capture. Prolly
not safe to post the capture on this list, should I email it to you
privately Jim?

Again, this only happens on a laptop that is part of my domain. Any
computer that is not part of my domain does not have this issue.

I have not tested my laptop in another location yet, only from my home
FiOS config.
