mirror.arlug.ro contains msi files, see:
http://mirror.arlug.ro/pub/tdf/libreoffice/stable/3.6.0/win/x86/

It is a problem with Internet Exporer.

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie9-windows_7/downloading-an-msi-file-renames-it-man-really/590868e5-d0a4-4815-99b9-667a097340a3?msgId=e4ec196b-9b41-49a4-999a-cf6d9e6fa5c3

So, you can deactivate this behavior in Internet Explorer 8:

    Internet Options -> Security Settings
       "Custom Level" -> Miscellaneous section: 
       Open files based on content, not file extension

Even better, all mirrors should set the correct mimetype for msi:

    AddType application/octet-stream .msi

@floeff: can you please notify mirror admins?
