What's the way to say IExplorer to open the download-dialog box over a link, instead of trying to open the specific file with IExplorer?

What's the way to say IExplorer to open the download-dialog box over a link, instead of trying to open the specific file with IExplorer?
Browser integration, apparently, is not your friend. Two alternatives:
1) Make it a zip file. This way it HAS to be downloaded
2) Tell the user to right click and choose "Save Target As"
I did make a ZIP file, but stupid IExplorer is trying to opening instead of prompting for download.
Well, in the good ol' days, you never transfered a file via HTTP. So if you wanted a file download to be triggered by a link, you simply specified that the link should use the FTP protocol.
I don't know how to do what you want, though.
