>I have a winzip self-extract file (".exe") i want downloadable via internet. I don't why an error occurs when I tried downloading it. When I tried to download (via the link) it takes longer time and in the end gives me a "CGI Timeout" error. It does not even prompt me to the "File Download" page.

The file must reside on a folder where there is no permissions to execute.
If you have a cgi in the same directory, create a new one for your downloads and set the execution permission to none in the property sheet of this folder in IIS.
