This rule is obviously evil, but not new.
If the download limit is 10 per day then either there is an
incompatibilty with Firefox, or a bug in the way the download count is
implemented.
I selected a flight log, then selected IGC (download), *saved that
file, then attempted to use browser "back" function to go back the 2
pages required to select another flght log for the day. * "Back" kept
returning me to the download management window where I repeatedly hit
cancel/back before I gave up and started a new session with OLC.
It seems that all the attempts to get past the download management
screen were counted as downloads even though I downloaded nothing.
(by download management screen I mean the window that offers the
choice of opening or saving the file)
So how do I select another flight after having downloaded an IGC file?

That's pretty much the method I use and I have downloaded plenty and
never hit a limit. I've used both Firefox and Google Chrome.
Maybe you need to upgrade your operating system and browser (still
using Windows 95 and Netscape?)
