How to download file

When I make a link like this on my page...

http://www.domain.com/file1.smp

I get "page not displayed". The extension SMP is not a typical extension.
It needs to launch a local application. Similar to the way a DOC extension
would launch word.

Do I need to use ASP to do this? It seems to me that I should be able to
make this happen using just HTML.

Thanks!!
