you know that you're on a linux platform that doesn't run exe binaries..?
the only exception i know are the frontpage programs (fpsrvadm.exe, ...)
that have an .exe suffix, but they are ordinary elf binaries.
setting a mime type wouldn't be the solution, i think. you need to set an
"AddHandler cgi-wrapper .exe" directive within your httpd.conf.
