Hmm. I grabbed the 4.4-install.iso from ftp.freebsd.org this weekend and
got the same md5 you did. I just checked it again to be sure. Maybe the
contents of the iso have been updated but the web page is lagging a little
bit. (Anyway, you can probably discount line noise or a corrupted
download - I figure the chance of both of us getting the same md5 string
from different servers due to download corruption is slim.)
