1. Go to https://www.scilab.org/download/6.0.2
2. Click on "Scilab 6.0.2 - Linux 64 bits, (scilab-6.0.2.bin.linux-x86_64.tar.gz - 238M) (gz)" link

it triggers this piece of JavaScript.

    $(document).ready(function(){

        $('.file-link').click(function( event ) {
            event.preventDefault();
            window.open(this.href, "_blank");
            window.location = "/thanks";
        });

    });

which opens a new tab and closes it right away without having been able to start the download.

There's an error message associated with it.

We ran mozregression and it identifies Bug 1574372 as the cause for it.

Feel free to open if it's not fixed in the Nightly later. Thanks for this great report and the mozregression work.
