You would need to download a .cab file in order to download and install them on your PPC. You are probably downloading the windows installer which requires your to have your PPC connected to the PC.

Usually it's in a zipped folder that you can download and open on your computer. Then move the .cab file over to your PPC, and run that file from the PPC (using file explorer, for example).

another way:

if it's an .exe, run it on your desktop. most of the time, an installer will come up that will install directly onto your ppc using activesync.

Another thing: if it is an exe and says an incompatibility message, try copying the whole directory to your ppc folder. run the exe.
