That is a problem of your download client and has been discussed many times before on this list. So please use another or a more recent version.
BTW: There is a link on the entrance page of the download system (at the very bottom), which describes this. We should probably have a more prominent link on _every_ page of the download server to tell people how to use the downloads to avoid this recurring question.

If you got a FAT32 disk, its maximum file size is 4GByte. You want to use NTFS.
