I was wondering if anyone could help me with accessing network resources and running a exe using a C# program. What I am trying to do is have my program access a server and run an exe, which exists on the server, on the client. I need help with access the server and running the exe. If anyone could help on this it would be great.

Either way, once you have the path to the exe (either on the share, or downloaded to the local machine), use the Process class to run it:
using System.Diagnostics;
Process process = new Process(@"\\servername\share\filename.exe");
process.Start();
To download a file from a webserver, use the WebClient class:
using System.Net;
Uri uri = new Uri("http://www.foo.com/bar.exe");
WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.DownloadFile(uri, "C:\...\bar.exe");
