What OS are you using?  How did you create the *.exe?

Hi Ash,

If you wrote it yourself then just delete it.  Windows should only be 
asking "are you sure?".  If the OS is warning you about "blah, blah, 
blah", then that means you might have made a file-type association that 
would break if you remove the executable.  In that case, you should 
remove/restore the file association first before deleting the executable 
(then see if you still get the warning).

Of course, if it was installed with an installer then you should use 
Add/Remove Programs...
