Hi!
A response.sendRedirect("myProgram.exe") inside inside the servlet is enough to download this file.
On a web server all types of file can be access! The one that are not understand by the client browser can be saved locally.
So is it what you want otherwise: you can also redirect to a ftp server!
hope it helps!
