Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Got one today on aps.org, what's interesting is I always use HTTPS
 Everywhere with "Block all unencrypted traffic" and this url was saved in
 its http form, what I did was to click on the download link for some
 presentation then cancel it,

 `http://absuploads.aps.org/presentation/upload/***********.pptx`
