While browsing my Hard drive mozilla don't want to open such directories.
(it come from a wget -r )

Confirming on Linux, CVS from 9am PDT 07/20. The problem is that the directory
list converts a filename such as '%7Efoo' into '~foo', so that when it is
clicked on, Mozilla tries to open that (encoded as '%7Efoo'.) Typing in the
correct name manually ('%257Efoo') works fine.

This looks very much like a variation on the problems in bug 26003,
"Files with the percentage (%) sign cannot be viewed via mouse", FIXED.
Testing with the 2000-07-20-08-M17 nightly binary on WinNT, a file icon rather
than a folder icon appears beside any directories beginning with "%7E" in
file:/// listings. Directories whose names start with "~" (tilde) get the
folder icon and work normally.
Clicking on either files or directories whose names begin with "%7E" results in
an Unknown File Type dialog. Both appear in the file:/// tree with the "%7E"
transdlated to "~".
For http:// directory listings, directories beginning with "%7E" get a folder
icon and work as well as those strting with "~". Files beginning with either
work also.
Also: if both "%7Efoo" and "~foo" exist as directories, "~foo" appears in
the file:/// directory listing twice, both get folder icons, and clicking on
either results in the contents of the "~foo" directory being displayed.
The same directory listing via http:// shows "%7Efoo" and "~foo" as distinct
directories, and clicking on their names confirms that the contents are
distinct.
Adding a small .zip'd directory tree as an attachment to provide testcases
for everything mentioned here; follows.
OS: Linux → All
Summary: Can't open directories thar start with %7E → Can't open directories that start with %7E
