Are you trying to connect to that address using the Tor Browser? That
won't work, since Tor blocks local addresses to prevent accidental data
leaks.

The Freenet documentation recommends using a normal browser in privacy
mode:

"For best security you should use a separate browser for Freenet,
preferably in privacy mode. On Windows, the system tray menu will try to
use Chrome in incognito mode if possible. Internet Explorer does not
work well with Freenet, Firefox and Opera are widely used."
