How would I send a file though a computer, and then run it on a turtle?

You will need to read the file and send it though rednet. Here's a quick example:
f = fs.open("/filetosend", "r")
sFile = f.read()
f.close()
rednet.send(id, sFile)

Thanks! But how do I run it on the turtle when it receives the file?

You would need to do:
id, msg = rednet.receive()
f = fs.open("tempfile", "w")
f.write(msg)
f.close()
shell.run("/tempfile")

sFile = f.read()
Now there's your problem. f.read() is not a valid function. f.readAll() should work.
