It isn't clear to me what you tried to do when you say the pc won't read it. 
Is it supposed to be bootable and doesn't boot? Can you mount it? If so, does
the list of files show up with ls?

What about a loopback mount of the iso image file, to make sure you're
starting with a somewhat sane file?

Soes the site provide an md5 or sha1 checksum file?  If so, verify the
downloaded iso against that.  You can also directly md5sum the CDROM device
to verify that it burned correctly.

No joy with what?  How did you try to use the boot floppy?

host 66.35.250.210 tells me it's an alias for 66.35.250.24, which resolves as
vhost.sourceforge.net.  ftp was rejected, and http just cave me what looks
like a directory listing of an apache tree, so I'm not sure this is the
address you wanted.
