FF cannot access the FTP server from a web page.

From this page, http://www.saitek.com/uk/down/drivers.php, I've selected the following information:

Selecting from : Cyborg range Selected product : Cyborg 3D USB/Gold/Platinum Selected OS : Win XP 32 bit

When I click on "Download Drivers" or "Download Software" nothing happens, even though when I hover the mouse over each, I can see the FTP link in the FF status bar.

If I try the same thing in IE 11, it works OK. Interestingly, the links under "Plugins" all work OK!? So what is the problem here?

Works for me.

Did you try to click with the middle mouse button (scroll wheel) if the left mouse button doesn't work for you?

Did you try to copy the URL to the clipboard and open the link in a new tab?
