----------------------------------- cool dude Fri Feb 11, 2005 7:03 pm .exe files ----------------------------------- quick question why can't i add .exe files in the turing submissions or source code. it said that you can't add .exe files. :?: ----------------------------------- wtd Fri Feb 11, 2005 7:56 pm ----------------------------------- Because odds are such files are malware. The common solution is to put it into an arcgive (zip or such) and upload that. ----------------------------------- cool dude Fri Feb 11, 2005 7:59 pm ----------------------------------- how do u do that? ----------------------------------- Cervantes Fri Feb 11, 2005 8:21 pm ----------------------------------- You'll need winRar or winZip. They'll probably automatically add themselves to the list of options when you right click on a file. Right click your file and make your archive (the specific option that you click on is different for winZip and winRar. It should be easy, though). ----------------------------------- cool dude Sat Feb 12, 2005 9:38 am ----------------------------------- it works but the problem is it shows the code for all of it and the whole point of making into a zip was not to let the user see the code. ----------------------------------- Mazer Sat Feb 12, 2005 9:42 am ----------------------------------- So don't add the code, add the exe. ----------------------------------- cool dude Sat Feb 12, 2005 9:50 am ----------------------------------- i can't because when i just add the exe. file it doesn't let me. it only lets me if i add it with the code. ----------------------------------- Hikaru79 Sat Feb 12, 2005 11:18 am ----------------------------------- Then you're doing something wrong... WinZip does not care at ALL what it is you zip. Just right-click on the .exe file, and (my Windows memory is a bit blurry) hit "Make .ZIP Archive" or something along those lines. ----------------------------------- Paul Sat Feb 12, 2005 1:37 pm ----------------------------------- Its right click file, move ur mouse over winzip -> add to filename.zip
