To download a fuly licensed version of Sitecore you will need to actually buy it. Just registering for the Sitecore Developer Network (SDN) doesn't give you rights to it.

If you're just trying to learn Sitecore privately then what you need is Sitecore Express, which is for non-comercial use:

EDIT: You will have to contact Sitecore for a copy: http://www.sitecore.net/Company/Contact (thanks Yan Skylarenko)

There's lots of info for installing Sitecore on the SDN, as well as plenty of tutorials, cookbooks and references. Installation guides: http://sdn.sitecore.net/Products/Sitecore%20V5/Sitecore%20CMS%206/Installation.aspx
