Comment (by maxim):

 a clearer example, with a different file host:
 http://ziifile.com/2jlqd5wbfdxm/dictionaries.7z.html

 attempting to download from this site in 4.5 (JS disabled) gives the
 result "File Not Found".

 but file can be downloaded with no problems (same settings, JS disabled)
 in 4.0.8.

 there is something in new 4.5 torbutton that blocks file hosts from
 generating the requisite download links.
