Here is the full story:

In my great innocence I thought: what I cannot see does not exist.

I have downloaded org-5.16b.tar.gz with firefox a week ago.
When I saw the script, I have tried to understand it which
I didn't because firefox does not see org.tar.gz.

I never ran ``wget http://orgmode.org/org.tar.gz'' until
some minutes ago. It does work fine.

I did not know lftp until Dan's message. So I only used it just now:

Indeed, ``lftp -c open -e ls http://orgmode.org/'' does not show org.tar.gz.
But again, ``lftp -c get http://orgmode.org/org.tar.gz'' works like a
charm.

So for me, firefox _and_ lftp do not ``see'' org.tar.gz.

Normal or not normal ? That is the question.
My firefox version is 2.0.0.4.
Very strange that Dan's firefox does see it!

Many thanks to all of you for your help. I've learned a lot.
