Are GOG's download servers down or something? I'm having no trouble with anything else on the net, but I can't download any game/game-related stuff off GOG.

Works fine over here (via browser). Could it be a downloader issue?

Works fine for me (using Free Download Manager).

What kind of error are you getting, exactly (assuming your issue results in an error message)?

Sorry for the hassle, I just tried the gog downloader and it downloads fine. I wasn't getting any "error", just when I tried to download a file with my browser it would keep loading the page for a few minutes, until finally the page timed out.

I recall a month or two ago there being a problem with Firefox (13+ I think) and SPDY protocol, but I don't recall if it was fixed or not. Assuming you still encounter that problem again, does turning off SPDY help? Alternatively, you could try using IE since it doesn't have SPDY turned on, or of course, Firek can correct me by saying that SPDY doesn't cause trouble any more.

Yep, that was it. I set the network.http.spdy.enabled value to False, and downloading via GOG immediately worked fine, turned it back to True, and it won't download in Firefox.
