That is naturaly the first important thing. The second is some kind of
logic and calling things *.exe points to a Microsoft enviroment, no matter
how wrong that is.
Stupid people, like me, will think that it is something wrong, delete it
and have problems. An easy way to prevent this stupidity is to remove the
*.exe part.
This stupidity can be easily prevented by changing the name. However this
asks for a change of mindset of people who think that a user should not
mess with his own system and are pretty stuborn in that point of view.
No matter how technically it is all correct, it is still wrong.
