Hi all, is their anyway to run a .exe file on the internet, i would be grateful for any advice

thanks
 
It can be done, but is a very bad idea, because each time it is ran it has to create a different instance of itself, so think of it as opening lots of IE windows.. not to good on the old processor if 100 users are trying to run it. I would suggest using a DLL. You can find out how to create a dll at:

Be careful with it, but here ya go:

<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
dim wsh
set wsh = createobject(&quot;WScript.Shell&quot;)
wsh.run &quot;[insert command here]&quot;
set wsh = nothing
%>
