This isn't an authoritative answer but it's my understanding it might
be a *limitation* of
apach or httpd with file size bigger 2GB well so any files over 2GB are hidden.

To download the DVD iso file, I normally recommend users to go to a ftp site.

For example:
ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/5/i386/iso/
ftp://redhat.download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/core/5/i386/iso/
