Well I tried creating a dummy.zip file and rewriteing the contents but I got some permissions error. Since I pay someone to host then I dident mess with it any further.

I'm not sure if this will work or not, and as this is for .php and apache, not sure if you can find something similar for asp adn IIS.

From what I came across, if you put the following into a .htaccess file for a directory just for your script:

Quote: AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .php .htm .zip

then for that directory, any file in a .zip extention will get processed as a php file. So then you could still have a script to get the actual file from another location as you already did, but give it a .zip extention. Then the downloaded file should addapt the .zip extention from your script.

Why not put an html redirect instead with the actual auto load link on the html page is the zip, so that it downloads as a zip... (a double redirect done by some other download sites)
