I'm trying to develop a small inhouse file download tool
I need to detect all files downloaded from internetexplorer and display a
custom interface
i.e. when ever the user tries to download a file from IE, then a custom .net
interface needs to be displayed or AT LEAST both

i need to somehow intercept the file download event in IE

If you're talking about developing a Asp.Net web site with this
functionality, then what you could do is have the user directed to a
download link via a button. This way, when the user click on a button to
download the file, it will post back and run the button click event method
where you can do what you like.
