How do I make a link that let's a user download a file? A not right-click deal?

you will have to put the file into a "zip" folder and link to that.
many people use winzip program to create zip folders...

then put the file into a zip file, upload it, and link to it...
<a href="filename.zip"> clickity </a>

also depends on the file type. if you have an exe, they will be able to download it without using winzip or winrar ( http://www.rarlab.com ). But if you have an image or a txt or somehting that the browser would recognize as "displayable", you have to zip it up.
