Do you have properly configured your TCP/IP stuff?

Open Network Utility from Applications/Utilities folder under OSX and ping your TAP Ethernet IP address... If that responds, you have almost made it.

what are your numbers...give us specs. do you have it automatically or manually configged. does your pc connect through a router. what version of windows are you runing and is it SP2. do you have OpenVPN installed and have you rebooted after you installed it. have you enabled Internet Connection Sharing from the connection you normally connect to TO your OpenVPN connection. hell...what version of OSX are you runing and hav eyou patched it yet?

answer these and someone will be able to help you ;) telling us safari doesn't work does nothing...it doesn't work on most of our computers! :D

If you're sure that everything is properly configured, then you're probably missing DNS configuration. Edit /var/run/resolv.conf to include your ISPs DNS servers.

Sample:
nameserver 192.168.222.254
nameserver 10.0.18.1
