Maybe there is an easier solution, but you might need to implement your own
IDownloadManager. See:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753618(VS..85).aspx

I have an IE extension which invokes the typical File Download dialog
simply by telling the browser to navigate to the URL of a downloadable
file (for example:http://www.example.com/some_file.exe). My question
is this:
Can I specify the target filename (on the hard drive) for IE to use in
the download dialog?? I'd like to be able to suggest
"MyOwnFilename.exe" as the default save-as name when the user clicks
"Save" from that dialog. Is this possible?

I dont want to implement IDownloadManager or my own download manager.
I could also just use URLDownloadToFile if I wanted to do this. I want
to use the browser's native downloading dialog and capabilities.
