Do you mean to have the .exe file actually run on the server directly, like
a server-side script?  Or to have the .exe file be downloaded by the browser
and run on the client machine instead?

A .swf file is downloaded onto the client machine and then the browser loads
the appropriate plugin (which has to be installed first) that is needed to
play the file.

I want not to download any file, but I want to execute the .exe like a 
script into the browser (or by another way ?).

Thanks ;)

The way you tell that is impossible and contradicting.

If you have a cgi application then the webserver has to execute your
application on the server computer. A php-script for example is executed
by php.exe which has to be started by the webserver also.

For your cgi-application cgi.exe you have to put it in the cgi-bin
of your websserver and then call it with:
http://www.mywebsite.com/cgi-bin/cgi.exe

Your exe is executed on the servercomputer, it produces a htmlpage
that is forwarded to the browser, which the browser displays.

Only javascripts will be executed by a browser. But then the browser will
have downloaded the script before.

All things you want to execute in a browser will have to be downloaded by the
browser first.

Do you mean an active-form ?

Please tell what your exe should do or already does.

Then you need to talk to your specific web hosting service about that.
Different providers have different requirements, payment plans, etc.
regarding the use of custom executable files on their servers.  Some don't
allow it at all.  Some do but restrict its use.   Some require the
executable in .dll format.  Some require it in .exe format.  Some require it
in .cgi format.
