Because uunetnl.linux.tucows.com is setup to serve .deb as the mime-type
text/plain - and your browser is set-up to display text/plain.
The tucows site could add the following to their httpd mime.types
application/x-debian-package deb
(someone should probably track down who to tell about this, if tucows
serves a lot of .debs)
Or you could add the following to ~/.mime.types (netscape) :
type="application/x-debian-package" desc="Debian Package" exts="deb"
Or alternatively try:
wget http://uunetnl.linux.tucows.com/files/opera-static_4.0-0beta3_i386.deb
