Need file transfer browser control(s)

I need to implement the following download functionality in the
browser. When users request a certain operation from the web
application, certain files are downloaded to their PCs, into a certain
directory (configurable by user on the web application's screen in
user preferences and usually never changed) without prompting use for
save as.

I also need to be able to download multiple files at once through
browser from client's pc without client intervention.

TO achive both of these tasks I need a browser ActiveX. There is are
two active x controls that do this SoftArtisan's FileUP (this one does
the upload one or many files) and XFile which does download to a
folder on local machine. THese controls however are very expensive
(overpriced in my opinion) and I am wondering if there is a cheaper
alternative.

Thanks.

I have an app that uses Server.Transfer from page1 to page2. page2 needs to be able to read all the values from page1's form. The problem is, if the user clicks the back button on page2 after a Server.Transfer, the user gets a page has expired error. Is there a way to keep using Server.Transfer, but also have the back button work normally?
