You could:
  - copy the above URL into your favorite web browser, then scroll down 
to the file of choice.
  - Use your favorite FTP client.  Go to ftp.freebsd.org... navigate the 
dirs.
  - Use fetch(1) and append the filename to the end of the URL.

Any of the above should get you the file.  Then you can use pkg_add(1) 
to install it.

I used the *.2.0.20060928.tbz myself.  It produces some version of 
2.0.4.  I assume (right or wrong) it is a little more recent than the 
release candidate.
