Sounds like a web server configuration problem. The htsearch executable 
is being treated as a regular file rather than a CGI program. The web 
server needs some way to know that the file should be executed rather 
than sent to the client. How this is done depends on the web server 
configuration, but usually it involves placing the executable in a 
special directory or changing the name (e.g. htsearch.cgi) such that the 
web server recognizes it as a CGI.
