A moment ago, I had contact with G Data, the company that provides my internet security product. Testing has shown that the G Data Web Protection is what causes the delay when downloading from the LibreOffice mirror at Supportex. And not only with IE, but with Firefox as well (!) When the Supportex mirror download link is whitelisted as an exception for G Data Web Protection the download is as any other, without any delay. The G Data person that I have spoken to was unaware of this issue being mentioned ever before or with any other download link. Now it's for the G Data tech guys to find out what's the cause of this strange behavior with the Supportex mirror download links. I will send G Data Support a link to this thread, in case that can be helpful in any way. And perhaps G Data contacting Supportex could also be helpful.
