I suppose your solution has 3 projects - the Silverlight application, the web app that hosts the Silverlight project and the Web service project, right? Your policy file should be added to the root of the third project. You can copy it next to the .svc file.
However, if you are only consuming an external service over which you have no control over, you can only hope that the provider of the service has the policy file in place.
Cross domain access without the policy file is forbidden in Silverlight to avoid cross site forgery. Read this
MSDN article and three part article by Karen Corby
starting here.
You just download the file what you want to add the reference in to your project like (.dll) files . and the open your project in your project silvelright references is there .Just right click on that give add references .then click the Browse button and
add the referece where you save the download file
