how do you open executable files in ubuntu, i mean what program should i use to see whats inside of that file? heres the scenario, im on windows xp sp3 with comodo anti-virus and firewall and my friend asks me to reformat his sd card but i didnt got to reformat it coz of some problems with his card, then another friend came by asks me to reformat his mp3 player (those made from china). i did it on normal mode but some permission thing says that it cant be reformatted so i did it on safe mode. its now reformatted, my problem is when i inserted my own flash drive in, something came inside my flash drive taht i didnt notice it at all, i just notice it when i booted on ubuntu. some pop up message says

The software will run directly from the medium "skip". You should never run software that you don't trust.
If in doubt, press Cancel.
so i click cancel and ive seen a couple of files im not really familiar with. like q3v.com and uaacifr.com. i tried googling it but no chances so i guess i should ask the guys at suck-o. i know that theres an autorun.inf in. heres the info but i cant read it coz i dont know which encryption theyd use.
