    Emailing executables

    What files should I send with the executable for the receiver to be able to run the .exe file? Thanks

    All of the files that the .exe file depends on that the user doesn't have? Is this a trick question? Why is this in a programming forum?

    Zip It

    That's right...all files need to be sent but it will have to be sent as a zip file so that the .exe file isn't filtered by the email system. If the .exe file is sent as an attachment, then it might never reach the receiver or can be retrieved by an unwanted hacker.

    Your email messages and programs can securely be encrypted and digitally signed for everyone's protection. The ensures that only your intended recipients can read the messages and written code your sending, and the digital signature provides your recipients with proof that a message is really from you and not from some hacker.

    Email your messages and code safely.

    Uhh...is this an advertisement?

    FYI, some sites block .zip attachments too.
