Yes. Select "Redirect to homepage" under "Custom 404 page" in SEF Advance configurations.

There is no doubt that it's best to have regular 404 pages for non-existing URLs. Consider setting up individual redirects only for some of the them.

I'm sorry for my bad english. I try another time.
There are some url than sometime don't work, for example in this page : http://www.nelweb.biz/comunicati/hi-tech/colori-grigio-celeste-e-rosa-per-il-nuovo-iphone-3g.html there is the word "iPhone 3G" linked to http://www.cellularihitech.it/cellulare/Apple/Iphone.html but it doesn't work, but it is correct. As this example there are many url that don't work.
I hope that you understood me.

OK, now I understand when I saw the example.

Look at the source code of that page. The link is:

Code: [Select]
<a href="http://www.cellularihitech.it/cellulare/Apple/Iphone.html%20">iPhone 3G</a>
So the problem is in %20 at the end of the link. Look at your article code and correct it.
