What? English please? Can you explain yourself a bit more? It sounds like you want something to download onto the users system without them knowing.

What type of file is it? Also you need to be patient waiting a mere 19 min and reposting again isn't the way things go on around here. Other people need help to and we aren't here 24/7.

Why not just give a direct link to the exe file? It should prompt the user to download.
Code:
<a href="http://linktoyourprogram.exe">Download Program</a>

Back to the part where they don't know its being downloaded. There is no way to access the users browser. If the browser can't open the file natively then the save/open box will popup and it will be up to the user on what they want to do. Again please use proper English on the forums. Read the forum rules before you post again.

A website online cannot write files to the users desktop without them knowing. Its a security risk.

Swazi it seems like you want to install a virus on someone's computer
1. It's an .exe
2. You want it to install with out them knowing it
