How to make a .exe program which has been uploaded in my website downloadable?

Hey guys, i need some help
I have a small program(less than 1mb) which I want to host on my website but after i uploaded it and then tried to go to the link
hxxp://w3.website.com/program.exe
It does not start the direct download.
Is there a php code to make it directly downloadable?
Thanks in advance for the help.
PS: Sorry if its the wrong board, for me it seem the right.

Actually download should start automatically when you hit that link. What happens ? a blank page ?
did you try this in both chrome &FF

Yeah a blank page and the link becomes like this:

hxxp://w3.mywebsite.com/my%20uploaded%20proram.exe

- if you have spaces in program name, put underscores _ between words
- put software in .zip or .rar

What web host are you using? Do you have any other software that may have edited your .htaccess on your directory?
