How do I view pages that are links in my emails?

I receive various emails that often contain links to articles and other websites. Although none have ever been troublesome, Firefox is now preventing me from viewing them "for my own safety". How do I go back to simply viewing the stuff I'm reading about in my email?

Hi

Do you have an example of a link that you are trying to view?

For example: https://www.ui-deref.com/r/?to=https://www.rockauto.com/Newsletter/&tt1=zCJlo6hUXgicubtvg267N24IMGfeDLCzNYk9OaTcjIRGSWNqxrljamQzzggULa8DPzUTPTLaGH0RkljamVkkAE3Wrk6NvC7O8IGMVVjnF1v The email was from RockAuto.com telling me that their monthly "newsletter" was available for viewing, that's all I m trying to see. Also, I get a news summary that includes links to longer articles that expand upon the "headlines" they are sending me. These links also get stopped by the page telling me they are protecting me from eeevil connections.

If the links worked before, it is likely a Firefox security or Safe Browsing setting, or security software on your computer, not the email itself. Try opening the same link by copying and pasting it into the address bar to see if it loads. If Firefox shows a warning page, sharing the exact message or a screenshot will make it much easier to find the real cause.

Right, this site got reported as containing malware most likely, see support.mozilla.org/questions/1594824
