I'm not sure if self extracting zip files are classified as .exe but if you use the directory structure when zipping it up then surely even my granny should be able to:
1. Click on the link.
2. Double click on the downloaded file.
3. Sit back and wait for you to do whatever you do.
Just my $0.02.
An afterthought...
Script kiddies also need people to download files where no user intervention is required...
Seriously though - keep up the good work. I don't have patience with people who don't even know how to change the wallpaper on their desktop, so I admire your patience.
Yeah I use to think the same thing. UNTIL I worked at my former job and tried teach basic windows usage. Trying to get a person to click the RIGHT mouse button was a major effort.
With the remote support program I use it saves me a lot of time and frustration. But believe me just getting them to be able to SAVE the thing to thier desktop so that they can click on it is and effort in explaining. If I do not explain that in the most simple terms I usually get. "What do I click on" or "Where is that 'thingie' now"
