My Raketu applications terminates when I try to receive any .exe file or .exe link on Windows Vista?

Vista for security reasons restricts the transfer .exe file and links. Raketu application in general allows its users to send and receive “.exe” file both via file transfer option and in form of link through IM chat option. However if you are running Raketu on Vista and wish to transfer .exe file you will not be able to do so.

Raketu displays an alert message when some one tries to send you an “.exe” file or link. If you click on “Accept” you can receive the “.exe file. Unlike any other Operating System, Vista does not allow you to receive .exe file/link due to its security settings. Therefore if you using Windows Vista and click “Accept” to accept the .exe file/link, Vista automatically terminates the Raketu software.

If you are non-administrator, it is advisable to ask your computer administrator to install Raketu on Windows Vista for you.
