A friend emailed a video in an .exe file. I downloaded the bink player so that it could open the .exe file on my mac. However, the file is not bink type. Is there anyway I can open the .exe file without bink player?

bink? the only way to open an .exe
(windows executable code) is to use a pc
environment on your mac, ie, Virtual pc
from www.connectix.com or softwindows
from i forget where. A simpler alternative
is to have him send this file not as a
windows app, but as an actual video,
.mov, .avi, .mpeg, even an .asf which u
could play using various proggies in ur
native mac environment
