It says Gateway Timeout and actually executes the application on the server.
Background:
Server is 1.1.6 running on Windows XP. On my website there is a section where you can download a handful of files. Most of the files are .zip in extention and those download just fine, however a couple are .exe. When a visitor clicks on an .exe file to download, the browser thinks for a minute then comes back with a Gateway Timeout. Funny thing is if you look at the XP computer itself that is running the Aprelium software, the visitor's download request actually executed the .exe on XP side.
I couldn't figure out for the longest time why Unreal Tournament Demo was appearing on this computer trying to load multiple times lol.

if the .exe is in your cgi path it will be treated as a cgi program and run
take it out of your cgi path and all will be ok |
