I"ve been taken to the mat about my private IMs. VPNs work in the UAE for VOIP. Pptns don't seem to work in public hotspots. Ipsec works in most places. The average corporate VPN won't help you because they don't port the whole internet over the connection, only their intranet portion. If you have a "tunnel mode" you should be set. Otherwise, you'll need to set up a VPN with one of the many services.

I'm gun shy about talking about this issue in public because the State phone company is clearly surfing the webn and reading this stuff.
