Looks like the download links are pointing to the staging site allizom.org.
Also, this is download-*sha1*.allizom.org, which sounds like one of those web heads for XP.
The SHA-1 support has been disabled on Firefox 52+, this is an expected behaviour I guess.
Kohei is right. These download links are for Windows XP users, many of whom can't use a sha256 cert for HTTPS. So we set up a separate bouncer instance at download-sha1.allizom.org because we had a good sha1 cert for *.allizom.org and could no longer purchase a new one. Users on IE on Windows XP can still get this download. Users of other OSes who want that version of Firefox should not click the normal windows link and they will be able to successfully download.

Seems like we should show (only!) these download-sha1.allizom.org links to users running IE on XP/Vista (and never to users running a modern browser).
Ah! You're right. I misinterpreted this one. Showing those links on the /organizations/all/ page was a bug that showed up when the new ESR was released and we began showing both ESR releases on the page. We haven't done this for a while, and the SHA1 links are new since we last enabled it. This was fixed in bug 1345416 and those links are no longer on the page. I'll re-categorize this as a dupe. Apologies for being too hasty with the WONTFIX.
Resolution: WONTFIX → DUPLICATE
