I doubt you have pasted the URL correctly into your browser, as it must take you to a completely different page than that you have illustrated.

A direct download for a German version of OpenOffice 4.0, running on Windows, is at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.0.0/binaries/de/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Win_x86_install_de.exe/download

(all on one line, please)
