You would have to modify your URLScan.ini file to allow the .exe extension, but
then you open up your server to much nastiness.

Better to make it a zip file and instruct the user to rename it before
executing.

  URLScan, the ISAPI filter denies extensions of .exe by default.

  It comes with IIS lockdown

    Hey Tony,

    If I recall correctly the Ezest was is to put the .exe in a folder then in
    IIS turn off all execute permissions for that folder via the IIS admin tab
    "directory"

    hi there.

    its been a while since I had to rebuild an iis/cfmx server...

    whats the thing I have to do to make it so that .exe files are
  downloadable
    from my server?

    or is there nothing, and I just need to work on some other problem here?

    thanks.x
