Help please: win32/pe decompress for Linux

[zaktoo]

Hi guys

Anyone got a gpl or Free Software utility that can decompress win32/pe files please? UPX & unzip aren't coping with a file that is identified thusly:
MS-DOS executable PE for MS Windows (GUI) Intel 80386 32-bit

Thanks

Ciao

Sorry being dense... it's saying its an executable? What's the actual extension of the file? .exe, .zip, .rar?

If it's some form of self extracting executable type jobbie then feed it to wine/crossover-office and see if that works.

Yes, executable .exe. I don't have wine though, but if worst come to worst I'll install that, thanks ;-)

Not a problem. FYI: if it's some form of autoextract thing with no user input you'll find the output in $HOME/.wine/drive_c/<extraction path>

Nah, as per my original post, it's not doing it for me. Thanks though
