Hi there,
Just put your file into some folder under the webroot of your site and link to it like this:
<a href="SomeFile.exe">Download</a>

And where? And when? You'll need to provide more details if you want us to help you. Simply creating a link to a file shouldn't generate this error. So, please be as specific as you can.
Cheers,
Imar

Immediately? Or when you execute the .exe?

That's weird. Sounds like a browser issue to me. How are you requesting the file (over http, or from disk) and in which browser are you testing this? Have you tried a different browser?

Hi Imar,
I am using Internet Explorer Version 7. Just now tried with Mozilla and it is working with Mozilla.
But I need this issue to be fixed for Internet Explorer as that is the standard browser available to all in my organization.
Your suggestions pl...

I don't really know. It's supposed to work like this. It might be an issue with your browser, your security settings or security software on your machine.
Otherwise, I don't know why this doesn't work...
