1. What OS are you using to provide the sizes (larger than those given
on the web site)?  I believe that Windows calculates MB differently than
Linux does.
2. Did you also download the SHA1SUM file and do a sha1sum compare of
the file you got with the values in that file?

If you did #2 and the sha1sum matches then this is most assuredly an
issue with the way the filesystem is displaying the sizes.

What I see on the download site for the i386 iso images is
    687235072   Mar 15 04:47   FC-5-i386-disc1.iso
    700618752   Mar 15 04:48   FC-5-i386-disc2.iso
    721016832   Mar 15 04:50   FC-5-i386-disc3.iso
    720910336   Mar 15 04:51   FC-5-i386-disc4.iso
    387753984   Mar 15 04:52   FC-5-i386-disc5.iso
   3253669888   Mar 15 04:49   FC-5-i386-DVD.iso
     79122432   Mar 15 04:31   FC-5-i386-rescuecd.iso

If you see exactly the same byte sizes and the sha1sum matches there is
no problem. There is not a problem if the sha1sum matches even if you
cannot see the actual byte sizes.
