What kind of redirect do you see?  I get a 302 redirect to the correct
file no matter what downloader I use.  I've pasted the response headers from 
using wget, just because they're easier to copy and paste.  To see the headers
in Firefox, you could use something like 
<https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/live-http-headers/>.

$ wget -S https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-43.0.4-SSL&os=win&lang=en-US

I was wrong -- it's CloudFront, Amazon's service.
