open exe-file (IIS 5.1, Win XP)
|
|
|
| hi,
I always get an error "HTTP 404 File not found" when I try to load an
exe-file from a virtual directory to run on the client. I can open other
files (htm) from the same directory, but no exe-files.
Thanks for any help!

| Hello,
Have you installed URLScan? This prevents (by default i think) exe-files to
be downloaded, unless you allow it.
This KB Article explains how to configure URLScan:

| Do you have URLScan running (from IIS Lockdown)? It is configured to reject
requests to .exe files by default.
