One single Install file from web

I have a VB6 program I want users to download from a website to install on their local machine. I'd like them to be able to install it directly from the web page with ONE executable when they click on the link 'Click Here' -- instead of having to download a zip file, unzip it, then execute the setup file from their hard drive.

Does anybody know how that is done?

If u will make users to install the program from web page,I recommend u to make a activeX control in the web to finish this function.
