While it is true that many programs can't handle 4GB (and there are some 
that do), that is not the case.  They said that their site experiences 
heavy download volume.  The FC4 dvd iso can be found on numerous mirror 
sites:

FTP
ftp://mirror.linux.duke.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-DVD.iso

HTTP
http://mirror.linux.duke.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-DVD.iso
