You CAN'T view .exe on a mac without a windows emulation board and software, or a software emulator app (softwindows). Do yourself a big favor and forget about the exe files. Just toss them. You are a Mac user (!) and at the very least you can thumb your nose at .exe e-mail attachments. Also, for next time: check old posts here before asking something. This issue has been addressed many times.

Connectix Software Company makes a Virtual PC, which emulates a 133 pentium. It cost money but will give you a Windows 98 operating environment like all your friends have, allowing you to view all the stupid stuff and download viruses. I use it in a prepress environment and have found problems printing accurately from MS programs, Adobe Programs and Quark work fine in this environment. Games are really slow. this compnay also makes Virtual Umax, and Virtual GameStation, which plays playstation games on your mac or pc
