I am getting this error too, it is because the download link is pointing to http instead of https. Anyone getting this in the future, just hit F12 in chrome to open up developer console, then click the download link, you will see an error that looks something like this:
Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/42576/#content' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure XMLHttpRequest endpoint 'http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/ajax/downloadfile?id=1000000553'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
You can download it but copying that second url and just changing http to https.
