The reason you end up with a 141M file is that the program you download with and possibibly the fs you are putting it onto are using and int and a wrappring either at the int or unisigned it boundary what program where you using to download the file?

I experienced the same problem too about 2 months ago using the following, and another site (I have forgotten which one).

http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mirror.centos.org/5.1/isos/x86_64/CentOS-...

As a workaround, I set up a local mirror and did network install instead.

Can't say about the torrent file, but I would assume if there a problem with one, there would be a problem with all... The DVD from http://holmes.umflint.edu/centos/5.1/isos/x86_64/ file size is good. I'm downloading it now and will run an MD5 check on it. Have you tried an MD5 check from a direct download? At least for me, that's generally faster than torrent anyways...

I just did a test download and it worked perfect. (just standard browse-to via firefox, then "save file as")

Yes, you're right, as I said in an recent psot, my ISP was preventing from dowloading such a big files, but I skip its proxy using tor+privoxy ;)

If your torrent is failing, that isn't really a problem with the mirrors but the torrent client/peers.
