Downloading binary file from non-www dir

[Inhumanoid]

I want to be able to download a binary file on the hd of the server that is in a directory that is not a www directory...

Can it be done with asp ? How ?

Nope. Default security settings will not allow access to files outside of the wwwroot folder on IIS.

This can not be true cause i am able to download non-binary files (like a txt file) form a non-www directory using filesystemobject. however it wil not work with binary files
