What means could be easier to fix this 404 problem?

Problem:
> I just noticed, that the German download (OOo_3.3.0_Win_x86_install_de.exe) 
without JRE does not work
> (it ends-up with "404 - File not found").

Reproduction:
1. http://www.openoffice.org/
   click on the banner "I want to download OpenOffice.org"
   click on the link "Get all platforms and languages"
   that takes you to http://download.openoffice.org/other.html

2. disable a check box "Include the JRE to the download
   (switching is only available for Windows and Linux 32-bit RPM)."
   in the section "Java Runtime Environment (JRE)"

3. click on the link "Download" on the line of German at Windows
   
http://download.services.openoffice.org/files/localized/de/3.3.0/OOo_3.3.0_Win_x86_install_de.exe

Backgrounds:
== install-wJRE_de.exe has been released, but install_de.exe ==
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=116569
The followings have been released for 3.3.0 German so far:
 OOo_3.3.0_Linux_x86_install-deb_de.tar.gz
 OOo_3.3.0_MacOS_x86_install_de.dmg
 OOo_3.3.0_Win_x86_install-wJRE_de.exe

== JavaScript in the other.html does not care about the existence ==
JavaScript in the other.html simply switches the link between
install-wJRE_de.exe and install_de.exe following the status of the check box.

Notes:
The same phenomenon can be observed for Italian ones and probably others.

Related small problem:
the check box malfunctions with Back button of web browser.
1. http://download.openoffice.org/other.html
2. disable the check box "Include the JRE to the download ..."
3. click on the link of German Windows.
4. confirm File not found.
5. back to the previous page with the button "Back"
6. click on one of the link of German Windows.
7. confirm download starts for install-wJRE_de.exe instead of
   install_de.exe even though the check box is disabled.

Tora
