A friend send me a mail with a link inside his mail.
He is using Outlook 11.
The offending mail part is:
----------------------------------
Chers Amies et Amis randonneurs,
  Infos sur le site  www.arpernaz.be
Les renseignements de la rando à Erezée (5fév)
----------------------------------
The link is www.arpenaz.be.

When i pass the mouse over the link, i got an information box showing me
the text present in the subject line of this post.
When i click on the link - nothing happens; i cannot go to the site
www.arpenaz.be.
When i right-click the link and i choice "open link in new window" an SM
Browser window open with the url:
blocked::blocked::http://www.arpernaz.be/
and the site is not visible.
If then i remove the blocked::blocked:: out of the url and depress the
"Enter" key, i can reach the site.
----------------------------------
What can i do to solve this problem ?

You shouldn't be opening links from email. That is a security risk. That is
probably also why Outlook 11 makes it difficult to open a link from an
email. You should always copy/paste the link in the browser and read all
email in plaintext. SeaMonkey has no problems with opening that link when
sent from Outlook Express to SeaMonkey mail but that doesn't surprise me
because OE is ancient and has a lot of security problems. Outlook 11 should
be much better security wise.


May be, but i doubt .. because he uses the 11 version as you can see in the headers of his mail:
X-Mailer: Microsoft Office Outlook 11
