Hi Eli,
setting this variable makes tab completing directory contents work like a charm
again.
To me it seems most surprising that the faulty behaviour manifests itself only
when the vpn software has established a tunnel.
Entering w32-get-true-file-attributes on google also turned up [1], which goes
into a bit of detail and also has another option available should the first one
not work.
Thank you very much!

Does it help to set the value of w32-get-true-file-attributes to nil?
If not, then perhaps you could use some utility that traces system
calls, and see which one of them is stalling.
