Thanks Nicolas for your answer. You're absolutly right, put each time I click on a external protocol link I have security popup... In fact I did this special request because I've made a web application based on this for my work. Using it, it's really uncomfortable with Chrome to validate each time the same link. It seems IE isn't doing any check and allow anything without asking. On the other hand, Firefox display a popup for a each new protocol but you can check the mark "remember my choice for all link of this type". A similar improvement would be the best for my problem.
