TUN TCP openvpn over port 443 routing all but HTTPs

[marlongt]

Good afternoon everybody,
I'm new to this forum, i've been fighting with OVPN settings all the way to here.
I've been finding a lot of clear infos in this forum and I succed in my goals.

I have now setup a server on a STB on TCP over 443 port.

I'm conncecting to it from my android phone, everything is working:
browsing all clients webifs
tcp, ssh, internet browsing with server's IP

I've now configured the client on my office windows7 behind a company firewall which is managed by our IT.

My company IT profile is capable of browsing and I've only a not restrictive web sense filter.

I managed to connect to my home's VPN, what is working:
ftp, ssh, network samba shares, ping to OVPN address and server side address .....
what is not working:
http browsing with OVPN server's IP (don't know why but that's fine for me)
http browsing to server's side client webifs (over http!!!) which is why i setup this connections.

I'm going crazy!

on the right side the routing table of the same PC connected with a mobile hotspost of my phone, on the right side connected in my company lan. The left one works flawlessly

Basically the top table is with working scenario, me connected in wifi with the company guest network as an unknown user.
The bottom down it's me with my LDAP profile connected to the company network, not working scenario.

I think it is nothing related with routes, cause the structure is identical.
But how can be a firewall issue if the most dangerous protocols are free to pass and the HTTP not???

The only thing which is weird is that in the scenario1 all the traffic of my 127.0.0.1 seems to be routed trough my VPN , if i'm browsing to "tell me my IP" i see my VPN internet address.

In scenario2 all the HTTP traffic is routed by my company network while i can keep connecting to ftp and ssh at my VPN side as well....

I managed to go out with my VPN internet IP, but in a very dirty way:

created a SSH tunnell to my ssh server on the VPN side,
configured putty for ssh tunnel on localhost:55021
configured my firefox to connect to proxy his traffic to the proxy v5 on localhost:55021

now i have my personal browser firefox which is secret, and explorer which is company, looks nice and handy this way, but i don't like the way i achieved that....i'm sure there's a more fashioned way....
