On my Linux server, I just symlinked my download url path and set appropriate permissions so the web server could only access map files/models/materials, etc -- works like a charm... and while you should bzip your files to help downloads go faster/better use the bandwidth, the server SHOULD allow download of any file -- but again, as somebody else stated -- if you're on IIS, you have to explicitly tell IIS about the mime type/extension, or it will never be let go for download on IIS.
