you have to use HTTP or HTTPS , there is no other solution to this. Flash player only permits these protocols while downloading. Its a security restriction.

you can use navigatetourl which can call the file to open, If the file is not browser supported file it will show you save dialogue
protected function downlodBtn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
flash.net.navigateToURL(new URLRequest('abc.exe'), '_self');
}
