It is 3.2 x 10^9 nucleotide pairs, I think about only 800MB.

You could try the NCBI:

I believe what you need is Genbank:
http://www.clcbio.com/index.php?id=442
Thats one link I believe will get you to it. If that doesn't work then try "GenBank" in google... perhaps with the terms "Human Genome" tagged in as well.
GenBank contains all publically accessable genomes and the like for download. I used it a few times myself during my Palaeobiology degree, though since I'm out of education now I don't really have need to make use of it any more.
O'course at some point I intend to double-check the validity of the Afrotheria by checking the mitochondrial genomes of tenrics, elephant-shrews, elephants and other primitive "insectivora"... for personal reasons.
I trust you have such programs as Clustal and Treeview for analysing the data, right? Unfortunately I don't have the links to those available right now, but if you e-mail me at my gmail address (check my username and use your intuition) later I might be able to get those to you if you need them.
I can check other things later when I'm not at work if you like.

Website for the Genome Sequencing Center at Wash U.
(added) If you have any problems downloading it, either contact the Outreach department at the GSC or email me and I can either direct you to someone who can help you or mail you a copy of it that I have on a cd.

dont think you will be able to get it as one file, or in simple format, they are constantly updating it and so new versions are available as and when. you can get specific genes or regions from the ensemble genome browser, maybe larger chunks if you look around the site:

Yea those links above are good ones. Nobody downloads them I don't think. But they have online system you can use to check sequences and find genes.

See link below for the DOE website. I don't believe that you can download it though.
