i just went to mysql.org and within 3 clicks was at the download page. you probably saw the links to the commercial version and clicked on those instead. however, why wouldn't you try to download it through whichever package management system your operating system uses? i'm sure whatever you're using already has pre-built packages that have been patched/tested for your specific platform.
