Wild guess: a firewall/web cache on your ISP's side, filtering HTTP requests based off the user agent (the official viewer advertizes "Second Life", TPVs advertize their own name: if the web cache/firewall filters out "unknown" (rare/custom) user agents, then you are in trouble). To verify this, configure Firefox' user agent string with the same user agent string as a TPV (it should appear in the viewer log), and try loading a web profile in that TPV-impersonating Firefox configuration...
