Okay so a couple of people having difficulties, let's start digging:

can you download other files normally? Due to the archive reference I guess the answer is "yes"!
how about other browsers? Can you try something like seamonkey?
In ff/preferences under General where are you downloading to?

Cheers

Just my two cents - I used the method you described up to somewhere around
when version 4.x first appeared, but for more recent updates, the donation
page is as far as I can go. Since that time, I've never been able to
download from the site - no error messages or anything like that - just no
download. So, unfortunately, I can't provide any clues.

I'm using 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and the Firefox browser if that makes any
difference. I've read all sorts of reasons why the "official download" might
have stopped working, but none of them make sense to me. Luckily there are
other ways to obtain LO, although it does seem to be just a little risky to
not be getting it from the original source.

Because most of the comments I read seemed to suggest that other people have
no problem with the "official" page, I just assumed that something was amiss
with my system in particular and ignored advice like "try again later" and
the like.

I did that, too, and it never worked.  Someone posted the link to the
archive, and that's what I now use when the main page fails.
