Well its the good old trick <string>.<good known extension>[ insert 
numerous spaces here ].<nasty executable extension>

This relies on MS IExplore or Outlook to not show more than X characters 
of the file name, but as your  screen shots show, its detected as a 
Screen saver meanijng it has a .scr extension which happens to be 
executable as well.

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 
\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ .scr
MS-DOS executable (EXE), OS/2 or MS Windows
