Is it possible when Host Monitor has protectet a alarm, that host monitor open a html link.

If you just should open browser window (e.g. IE) on the machine, where HostMonitor is running, you may use "Execute External program" action, with the following command line: "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" C:\test.html
Instead of C:\test.html you should specify required URL.

If you need to send some data to the Web Server, you may use "HTTP request" action.

i want to open a link with variables but with the HTTP request is doesnt work.

"HTTP request" action request does not open a link, it sends HTTP request to the Web Server directly. So, you will not see the browser's window.
"HTTP request" action has supported macro variables in "Request" field for ages. Macro variables in "Host" field have been supported since version 7.08
So, if you use an earlier version and want to use variables in "Host" field, we recommend you to upgrade to the latest version.

As Max said you may use "HTTP request" action.
