Is it best to offer the ebook as a download? I was testing an ebook compiled with the ebook complier software but since it's an exe file it was removed by Gmail, yahoo, and two ISP's. I had better luck zipping it but still was shut out by Gmail and an ISP. Do most of you offer a download option or if you email it how do you get around the bad rap exe files have due to virus programs using exe file format?

I make the book available as a download from the web site. For those who have executable files blocked I also offer it as a zipped file. The only problem with zipped files is that some people are unfamiliar with unzipping files and not everyone has an unzip program installed. To this end StuffIt offers SEA (Self Extracting Application), which will unzip a file when double clicked.
