I don't see the problem at all. The Index on that site shows a size of 4093 MB.

That's incorrect on my machine. All it says is unknown file size. There must be a glitch with the software you're using.

It's not going to download the whole 16 mil TB. It just has an unknown file size. So whatever your using just interprets that as HUGE. But it's DEF less than 4.7 GB b/c it fits on a DVD.
