use the WebRequest/WebResponse classes to get the file you want or use the WebClient class, which includes events to show you the progress of the file download being completed. Ideal if you want to show the progress in a dialog box, giving the status of the download.
I would suggest reading the class documentation to get you started and to make you understand things a bit better:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webclient.aspx
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webrequest.aspx
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.webresponse.aspx
in order to open your application when the user clicks on say a downloadable link, you have to register your application with Windows in some way.

WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.DownloadFile(URI, DOWNLOADTO...);
client.DownloadProgressChanged += new ***
client.DownloadCompleted += new ***
