These just don't work at all:

  $ cp c:/WINNT/NOTEPAD.EXE n.exe
  $ ./n.exe      # works fine!
  $ uuencode n.exe n.exe > n.uu
  $ rm n.exe
  $ ls n.*
  n.uu
  $ uudecode n.uu
  $ ls n.*
  n.exe*  n.uu
  $ ./n.exe
  zsh: exec format error: .\n.exe
  $
  $ ls -l n.exe
  -rwxrwxrwx   1 JCooper          Domain_Users      594 Jan 18 10:37 n.exe*
  $

Any ideas what's wrong with it?

Thanks,
