	I have access to a wide spectrum of AV products plus I would try
running it and monitoring it in a VMware sandbox and check for unusual
activity.  If I were really suspicious (since it's a .exe) I would
probably run the "WOLF" (Windows On-Line Forensics) tool-kit after
running it.  I may yet run it through the gauntlet, I just don't have an
immediate need for it.
