Say you have a member variable QFile *m_file that you want to write the 
downloaded data to:

bool MyClass::startDownload(const KURL &url)
{
	if (!m_file->open(IO_WriteOnly))
		return false;
	KIO::Job *job = KIO::get(url, false /* don't force reload */, false /* don't 
	show progress dialog */);
	connect(job, SIGNAL(data(KIO::Job *, const QByteArray &)), 
SLOT(slotData(KIO::Job *, const QByteArray &)));
	connect(job, SIGNAL(result(KIO::Job *)), SLOT(slotResult(KIO::Job *)));
	return true;
}

void MyClass::slotData(KIO::Job *, const QByteArray &data)
{
	m_file->writeBlock(data.data(), data.size());
}

void MyClass::slotResult(KIO::Job *job)
{
	m_file->close();
	if (job->error())
	{
		m_file->remove();
		// Something went wrong, cleanup, inform user, whatever
	}
	else
	{
		// Alright, do something with it
	}
}
