 The actual download link is: releases.qt-project.org/qt4/source/qt-win-
 opensource-4.6.4-mingw.exe

 And that is shown in the status bar if you mouse over the link. But if
 HTTPS is forced by HTTPS Everywhere, then even though the link is:
 releases.qt-project.org/qt4/source/qt-win-opensource-4.6.4-mingw.exe the
 user gets first sent to the actual link, page starts to load, and then
 gets redirected to: https://qt-project.org/qt4/source/qt-win-
 opensource-4.6.4-mingw.exe which 404’s
