Hi,

exe extensions belongs to a good couple of systems, not just Windows.
In the case of an app compiled for .NET (with Mono or Visual Studio) that .exe extension exactly corresponds to a CLR Portable Executable.

You don't need any kind of Windows component to run those, you can just use mono.

mono myapp.exe works on any system with mono, being it Linux or Mac OS X.
