web browsers don't work with VPN connections after Android 4.3 Update

Hello,

I have seen it mentioned only once deep in another thread, but I wanted to bring it to the attention of Verizon.

Before the early January Android update on my Samsung Galaxy S3 phone, I was a happy customer of the ProXPN VPN service. I used it on my phone, and on my laptop as well, without a problem. After the early January upgrade, my phone shows the active VPN icon (it looks like a key), but all web browsers on my phone are completely unusable. I have contacted ProXPN, and there is nothing they can do - this is an android issue - ProXPN still works fine on my laptop.

Thanks,

Luke

Same problem with my Droid MAXX. It connects and continuously drops and reconnects.
