You haven't really given enough information about what kind of movie you have. For instance, what format is your movie in? AVI? MPG?
Assuming you have Windows XP, you can use Movie Maker (make sure you have version 2 - upgrade available at MS site), import your movie then render it as a .wmv.
There are several quality settings to choose from, so you will need to play around to find the best combination of file size/quality.
Hope this helps,

PS: a quick and dirty webpage could look like this:
<html>
<head>
<title>Movies!</title>
</head>
<BODY >
<a title="Click to view or Right-click to save" href="http://YourISPAddress/YourMovieName.wmv">
Click here to download movie</a></p>
