Using Front page 2002 how do I set up a download page for users to be able to
download game patches and mods?
 
All you need to do is to make normal hyperlinks connecting to the files (it
would be better if the files are *.exe or *.zip).
The download dialog box in IE will appear on clicking the links.
 
Put the files in ZIP (Compressed) files. Use Winzip or similar - or the
built in "compressed files" option in Windows 98 upwards (including XP) then
in your web site, link to the zip files, categorise them etc in to a useable
order. Upload the pages and the Zip files.

When the user clicks a link the download dialogue will open and prompt user
to save to a location of their choosing.

Or you could run it as a database driven site (but this might get
complicated if you're new at this type of stuff).
