On the client side? It won't work - the best you could do would be to give them a dialog box asking them to download it.

You could always write your program as an ActiveX control and then insert it into your HTML page by using the <OBJECT> tag. The user then downloads it and bingo! Your program will execute.
Unless the user has totally shut off all security, the ActiveX control will not automatically download and execute. They will be prompted if they want to download if you sign the ActiveX control. And it won't work in browsers other than IE. And a lot of security-minded or privacy-minded surfers have them disabled anyway.
