is there a way to run an exe from a link without the dialog that comes up asking if you want to save it<!--content-->I don't think so, it does that for security reasons. Imagine the implications of allowing applications to run automatically, it would be virus heaven.<!--content-->You cannot run it automatically. The person looking at the page might not be using a PC, or might not be using Windows so the file would not even be able to work.<br />
<br />
If you want to try this in reverse, just try Download <!--more-->ing some Mac or Linux software and see what it does under Windows. You won't even be able to install it.<!--content-->
