Good point.  Unfortunately, like with the web pages, ftp.vim.org does
not have SSL support.  But the same server is reachable through https
under another name.  So this url should work:
https://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/vim/pc/gvim80-069.exe

I changed that for the first link on the download page.  If this works
I can change other links.
