The problem is not in the IBM data; it's in the mechanism we use to get through 
our firewall. We cannot execute FTP at our end. We execute HTTPS.

How?  It doesn't seem to be as simple as changing the scheme in
    ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/s390/holddata/full.txt
to:
    https://public.dhe.ibm.com/s390/holddata/full.txt
... that gives 404.  "Bluecoat" seems to be a Symantec subsidiary.
Is it also some sort of proxy?
