        Almost - yes :)

        You must send HTTP header:

        Content-type: application/zip
 or 
        Content-type: application/octet-stream

 Or whatever you need instead of usual "text/html" as a reply. 
        And send this ZIP file as content (not HTML).


        But - there is one big problem.
 It's name - Internet Explorer ;)
 If it sees, that your result file really plain text or HTML or DOC or...
 wahtever it's looks like - It will _never_ look at Content-type:
 It just thinks that you are Dumb developer and coorect _this_ error :)))
 So even with "Content-type: application/octet-stream" user will
 see HTML file. (Netscape works OK and asks user to save/download file).


ps. I not know ASP.
        I work with PHP
