Well I had the saem problem. The fix is easy. Uncomment the baseurl
lines in fedora-core.repo, fedora-extras.repo, and fedora-updates.repo
(all of which are in /etc/yum.repo.d)

The problem is that the mirrors pages are down. See:

http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-fc5
http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-extras-fc5
http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-updates-fc5

respectively.

When the page comes back online, you can just replace the comments.
ie. recomment the lines. There should be no real problem if you forget
to do that however.

Peace
