Probably it is an elf file even if it has an "exe" extension.

Give it the executability: chmod +x <namefile>
Try to run it with : ./<namefile>

If it is a linux binary it should run.

Instead, if u are trying to run a windows bin, use some windows 'emulator' like WINE,bochs, etc....

Cheers.

Simple to find out, just do a:

file filename.exe

it tells you then what it is (o;

like:

me@pc:~> file windows.exe 
windows.exe: MS-DOS executable (EXE), OS/2 or MS Windows

or a linux executable:

me@pc:~> file `which more`           
/bin/more: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
