Usually running a .exe file from someone you don't know is a bad idea.

MK Ultra · 06-13-2014, 10:00 AM

so you want somebody dumb enough to run an .exe file that somebody else gave you?

if it's video this should tell you all about it

Load up a VM and try running it there. It's not a video file though. EXE = executable

Giving the absolute benefit of the doubt, it could be a program that contains a video player that plays a video that is embedded into the exe as a resource.

DirtyDanza · 06-13-2014, 10:05 AM

it's not from someone I don't know... it's trusted

it's cctv footage ....

this is what I'm thinking because it's cctv footage we need for a client....

phypon · 06-13-2014, 10:07 AM

.exe is not a video file. Plain and simple. Maybe the client sent you the wrong file?

seeandsee · 06-13-2014, 10:09 AM

lol you can pack video in exe file (program runs video inside it self - custom player and video bundled), but i never saw anybody do it...

they pack the tutorials into a exe file

Tom_PM · 06-13-2014, 10:16 AM

Bite the bullet and run it as someone said. You've pretty much always been able to create self executable movies so it's probably just how they do it.

i do it all the time. don't worry.

Emil · 06-13-2014, 10:18 AM

lol, tell him so send a video in a regular-video-format. I wouldn't start that shit.

Emil · 06-13-2014, 10:19 AM

Try to rename it to .zip. Sometimes you can browse it if it's a real zip-exe-file or whatever it's called.

InfoGuy · 06-13-2014, 10:34 AM

Mitigate your risk. Open it at an internet cafe.

DirtyDanza · 06-13-2014, 01:01 PM

it's legit what I need is someone with windows to open it and convert it for me to like mov LOL

I'm on mac only... it's not a bad file trust me....

fitzmulti · 06-13-2014, 01:15 PM

I've seen that before, about 12-13 years ago.

Then use Windows as a trial version:

A completely legit method.

editeur · 06-13-2014, 01:38 PM

It might be a self-extracting rar archive. Try to open the file with an archiver app.

SilentKnight · 06-13-2014, 06:59 PM

I remember self-extracting video/player .exe files from way back.

Back then it wasn't such a virus minefield. Wouldn't trust'em nowadays.

What sort of person would send an .exe video these days and just expect someone to gamble on it?

So install windows in a virtual machine. If it gets a virus delete it. Assuming you're not trolling, it's either a virus or an executable zip file. Usually the former. Last (only) time I opened a .exe "video" file I lost years of work. Never again. So man up and and take your own risks.

This ^^

I know you're a trusted poster DirtyDanza but no one is going to open a .exe for you. It's very easy for you to set up a VM. You could have had one set up already from the first couple of replies to your thread and have been done with it by now. If you have clients that have Windows files you should have a spare machine or a purchased copy of Windows running in a VM or be dual booting it for instances like this. It's simple to set up and much better than asking people here to test files.

With a VM setup you should be safe as it should basically sandbox anything that is potentially malicious.

Go on digitalpoint and offer someone $5 dollars to do it.

SilentKnight · 06-13-2014, 09:42 PM

Put the file on a USB flash drive and run Malwarebytes or similiar virus checker on just that drive.
