Hi @leitoxve,  
the download links should be working. Can you please check that the download is not blocked by your company and also try a different browser please?  
CVB is not available as package, so you would need to download and install CVB fist, then got to the installation “directory/python” and install the pip wheel e.g.  
`python3 -m pip install .....whl`
