I copied and pasted the link below, which looks identical to the link on the 
http://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html page when I click on MD5 for 
Windows English US 4.1.4, and tried it again.  When I go through our proxy 
server (here at work), it spins for a few minutes and then doesn't find the 
page.   When I access the link through a non-proxied Charter connection, the 
link fails right away -- a blank page opens and immediately closes.  But I can 
get to the KEYS and ASC links, just not the MD5 and SHA256 ones (I normally use 
MD5 to verify downloads).

it seems your Internet connection is different when handling such files. Compared to ASC and KEYS I need to download the MD5 and SHA256 files instead of seeing them in my browser.

So, can you right click the links and use "Save As" to download and save them locally? Does it work?

Otherwise I would ask the system admin for help.

I'm pretty sure it would work when you are at home. So, sending the hash values via mail to your work mailbox can help. Yes, a bit cumbersome ... ;-)

I'm on https://www.openoffice.org/download/ (tried IE 11 and Firefox) and 
downloaded the Windows English (US) 4.1.4 full installation executable, but 
cannot get to the MD5 page.  I can pull up KEYS and ASC, but both MD5 and 
SHA256 links pull up a blank page that quickly closes.

thanks for your mail.

After a quick test I cannot see a problem when opening, e.g., this file:

https://archive.apache.org/dist/openoffice/4.1.4/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.4_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe.md5

Do you try to open something different? If so, please tell us the exact URL.
