It is a permisiions issue on the server. On the directory
permissions tab the Execute Permissions should be set to
script only. If this site is not on you local machine, you
may need the site administrator to change this.

Hi Arif,

Does the folder that the exe is in have execute permissions? If so the web
server will try to execute the file.
