ColdFusion can't do this.  It would only be able to push a file to the user
using CFContent or other methods, which the user could then chose to
download and save.

To be honest, there are serious morality issues about web applications
making changes to the client computer.  This is the reason a lot of
companies block Java at the firewall and on their network, because Java is
capable of this kind of functionality and is easily open to abuse.

I would strongly recommend considering what it is that you are actually
trying to do and seeing if there are other more appropriate solutions.
