You can download the spring distros from springframework.org
http://www.springframework.org/download

Just select the version of your choise and start downloading from sourceforge.net server.

The sample applications are bundled with each download so they work with each version. Unless you have a reason for something older go with 2.5. Just beware many published books are only for v2.0. v2.5 was a pretty big overhaul so v2.0 books may not be totally accurate for v2.5.

"Spring Framework" contains the core of all Spring applications, so that is the one you should download.

You can use maven2 and then import spring as dependency. Makes things very easy.
