This seems heavily dependent on which server is actually serving the download. Marco and I cannot reproduce, unfortunately - like bug 1525243, it likely has to do with the network setup, and without being able to reproduce that it's not possible for us to do much here. As a regression it's so old that that also doesn't help us very much either, unfortunately... the downloads implementation has already been completely rewritten since then.

Probably doesn't make sense to track this for releases given that we can't reproduce and so also can't fix this.

Hi,

I am able to reproduce the issue on latest Nightly build 71.0a1 (2019-10-14) (64-bit) using Win 7.
