<a href="insert link for download file">Write text here that you want to link to</a>

For example you want to download the image on the google page
<a href="http://www.google.co.in/images/logo_sm.gif">Click here to see the image</a>

If you add that and click it, you'll see the image then the person should save it if needed. If the file is something like a exe,mp3 etc ie something that the browser cant parse, it will download the file

Update:

code:

<a href="http://download.msgpluslive.net/setup/MsgPlusLive-401.exe">Click here to download Messenger Plus! Live 4.01.240</a>

Output is seen as follows:
