Answer:
If it's something your browser doesn't know what to do with or can't read, it will prompt you for a download/open box. You can also right click on a link and choose "Save as..." to download the link.

The file will have to be stored on a web server for it to be accessible to the browser, unless you are making web pages to organize stuff on your local computer. Hyperlinks are also known as "anchors" in HTML-speak. This is why the tag to create links is named "A". In order for your A tag to point to a file or path, it needs to have an HREF attribute. for instance: <a href="http ://url.com/somefile.exe">the text description of the link goes here</a>
