You really don't need to make your posts big and bold. We can read them just fine.
You want to download a file from somewhere on the Internet to the
server? Not to the user's computer? Try
copy.

I don't understand what "silently download and store into server locations" means. All files from a web server are "downloaded". Depending on the file type and extension, the browser will display some and ask the user to save/open others. That depends on browser/OS settings. It may be different for various users. Or do you mean upload to the server? Or copy to another server?
When you say "it willl return to client locations", what is "it"? Is "it" the browser/page or is "it" the file being transferred?
PS - please stop using bold.

In case it's what you're asking, you cannot download a file onto the client's computer silently. Nor can you set where the file will be downloaded. All you can do is tell them that there is a file they can download if they want it.
