Well, after applying the latest Security update from Apple, the Cisco VPN client won't load. It is "unable to communicate with the VPN subsystem". After a little investigation, I believe the issue is not the security update but the kernel extensions used by VMWare Fusion. When I disable them, the Cisco client startups just fine.
To fix the issue, I did the following:
1. Startup the Terminal
2. sudo pico /System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN/StartupParameters.plist
3. Remove the line that says "OrderPreference = "Late";
It seems that allowing the system to have full control over the load order fixes it. At least it did for me.

Did not work for me on os x 10.4 tiger.
Not sure if my problem was exactly the same, however I finally solved it by re-installing the VPN client. http://mac.softpedia.com/progDownload/Cisco-VPN-Client-Download-12633.html
