I have no clue what you have ??? unless it's a non compiled version, or someone playing tricks with a virus so you load it on pc....

Generally it comes as an iso and you burnt it......Where did you get it from???  Slayers site ??  #xbins ?  or where???

Maybe it's an autoextract file for the pc? How big is the file?

well ive sorted it now, it was a self-extracting file but it was encrypted. Also mac's cant unzip .exe files so ill do it on a friends computer. Thanks for the patience though.

You want it to install evox in the first place, so you could not ftp it unless evox was already installed

you can always ftp off a boot disk without having to install evox.

But davepyne does have valid point... it is a auto-installer, just select the correct install method and let slayers do its thing
