browser to .EXE

Hello,

First of all thanks for the "funk&type" answers!

Now I had another question. I created a small database program 
for a group of people. I created a simple GUI for it in EuWinGUI 
so they can run it from a common directory and it works fine. 
But... originally I was considering following options:

1) run the program as a CGI on the companies webserver 
(but they couldn't get permission from the HQ)
2) run the program as a CGI on an intranet webserver 
(but they couldn't get permission from local CIO and 
I couldn't manage to modify the "webserver" applications 
found in the RDS Archive to run properly)
3) run the locally saved .EXE program from the browser 
(impossible to force all 200 users to change the MIME
settings of the browser)
4) run the program as an .EXE with a simple Windows GUI

As I said I chose option 4. But now that the work is over
I got back to the other options. Is there any simple way 
to solve the problem with option 3? Is is possible somehow 
to run a locally saved .EXE from a browser without modifying 
the MIME settings?

I am looking forwards to your ideas.

Regards,

Salix
