Are you talking about the webpage, www.sagemath.org ?

Yes.
When I go there, I
see a prominent link labeled, "Download 5.0". If I click on it, it take me to a page titled, "Download for Linux". (I didn't tell it I use Linux; that was automatic.)

I see. It must be different for me because I have Windows Vista operating system.

I go to http://www.sagemath.org/

I see  the download 5.0

I click on it.

It takes me to

http://www.sagemath.org/download-windows.html


I see the link of University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA <http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/sagemath/sage-mirror/win/index.html>

I click on it.

It takes me to

Here I read the instructions of

Here, you can download Sage for your system and platform. Not sure what to download? Then follow the*download guide* <http://wiki.sagemath.org/DownloadAndInstallationGuide>. For more information, visit theSage website <http://www.sagemath.org/>.

I am lost.  I don't know what to do next.

I click on the download guide.

It takes me to

http://wiki.sagemath.org/DownloadAndInstallationGuide

I am even more lost.

That page asks me to select a nearby server; I chose
XMission in Utah, though the choice here doesn't matter. Then I'm asked to choose, "32bit", "64bit", and "Itanium". Clicking on one of those gives me
several pre-built options for the OS build.

Does this not happen for you? If not, what happens when you click on the
"Download 5.0" link from that webpage?
