You have blocking software to change the url to prefix blocked to the url to get blockedhttp: to prevent you from opening the file. It might be the "Blocksite" extension, but I just typed in something I blocked into the location bar and I didn't see that happen. but that might not be the same as clicking on a link.

Maybe it's from the blocked sites list used by Firefox and other browsers maintained at google, or a parental controls application.

Are you using AKO for mail?

That is the current AKO policy, see [/questions/747157]


You can remove the leading blocked from the link to make it work.
