Does that version of wget support large files? Are the 3 ones that
were bad the dvd isos? All the dvd isos are over 2GB, and older
version of apache (on the server side) and wget (on the client side)
only go to 2GB and stop. 

So, I suspect your wget or the web server you grabbed them from can't
handle larger than 2GB files.
