Okay I have to have most of my Internet traffic go over the default while some needs to go over my VPN tunnel.
Is there a way to make certain URLs go over ppp0 while keeping the rest going over eth0.
I'm pretty sure it can be done with a combination of routing and firewall rules but this is something I have never done before so I really need as much help as I can get trying to make this happen. What I specifically want to do is send a selected few urls over the VPN and keep all others on eth0.
Any help on this would be much appreciated.

You could do it various way. If you don't expect the numner to grow much, you could just add a few routes to the routing table to direct the relevant URLs through the the vpn
If you expect a lot more, you may want to look at using a proxy or similar for the redirection
Okay how do I set up the routing tables? No I really don't expect it to grow overly large as these are for work and I only need to access them from time to time.
