Hello at all

At my job, i works behind a PROXY
And since not a long time, the big moderator have the super idea to lock the download of all file with the EXE extension, for better security
So i'm forcing to ZIP all my EXE possible to download in my site

Since this time i search an idea to can download this EXE, without use PB because if i put a "Loader" in PB, i'm obviously forcing to making EXE, and it is also locking by proxy

I must found an idea to loading my EXE with another extension (for exampler EX) and rename it when the download is finish.

Then i don't have idea, what language use ....Javascript, PHP, perhaps VBScript or BAT and again if VBS and BAT are not locked too (I have not trying again)

If you are an idea..... to fight the bad MODERATOR and his PROXY-DOG


Thanks for your help and good day

.pdf?

Thanks to your answer, but the problem if i rename the EXE in PDF, when the user double clic on the false PDF, the EXE not run, the PDF say surely "This file is corrupted" or a thing like this, and it's normal

I must found a tips for the user clic on a link on my site, the file with no extension EXE is download, and on the fly renaming in EXE on the hard disk

You want to host executable files that can be downloaded and run with a doubleclick but your administrator has locked out the .exe extension, is that about it? If so, you might try the .com extension, if that isn't locked out the OS should execute it on a doubleclick and you're in business. If .com is locked out though, I'm out of ideas other than surrendering to .zip.

Maybe you succeed with the Windows/Ubuntu bug and RightToLeft direction change:

Thanks a lot NETMAESTRO
Goof idea , as soon as I return to work, I would try the COM

Perhaps you all and your great knowledge, we can fight the moderator
Have a good day

@DarkDragon: Wow! I had no idea of this one, thanks for sharing it.

Hello DarkDragon
I try to read your site, but i have not again understand all
The tips is to add ".doc" extension at the EXE ??? like this "KccSoftwarecorporation.exe.doc"

But when i run the KccSoftwarecorporation.exe.doc it's WORD who take the hand....and after ???

Perhaps i can create a macro in VBA, for launch the EXE, but i'm not sure it's possible

Aaaahh!!!! i have understand

But the problem, it's that microsoft not leave this problem too much long time
And the time i change my EXE to this ..i'm sure the problem is fixed

So thanks for your idea, it's good to know

I've seen this before, too. The PDF gets modified during transmission by email. Shouldn't happen, but it does. If I send myself a PDF to Gmail, and then use a diff app to compare the original with the one attached to Gmail's email, they're vastly different by hundreds of bytes, even though Gmail can "view" it for me.

@KCC:

Can't you just zip your EXE?

Just import this in your registry. Now, all *.turlututu files are executables : DarkDragon> Damn' ! I was sure there was something like that with unicode (had to clean some text just a few days ago, and my cursor was jumping around), but I find so pathetic with this new example that our OSes are still suffering with this bad design choice of extensions. So lame!
I imagine how Microsoft engineers will patch the flaw : " We can't remove RTLO, so, if we just look at the language and accept the RTLO only for theses particular countries ? - Oh, what a great idea ! Fantastic, unanimity (except the guy that will have to code the stuff, coz it's easier, and he just don't care coz he has Apple at home)."

Yes, it's exactely what i do actually
But this choice of extension generate other problems, that it's too long to explain by text, especially with my "Frenglish" (Bad english)

@Djes
Cool This is another good and static idea
I don't know this TIPS...i'm sure i surprising you

Thanks a lot DJES

With the TIPS of NETMAESTRO, i have two chances to fight the Bad moderator

The first hour i come in my job, i have try, the two solutions :
Just NETMAESTRO tips works, bad moderator not enough vicious to lock the old extension COM
For the good tips also of DJES the bad administrator lock too, with active directory, the modification of registry

I am worse than a monastery here

Thanks again at all, and if you have another ideas..please tell it to me...in the life, we never know, it's always good to have rescue solutions

Have a good day

@KCC: Remember -- bypassing the moderator can cost you your job, if he finds out. Be careful!
