Larger than a CD?

Is it larger than 700MB's?

If so that's a very large program.

It's difficult to split exe files into more than one file. I suspect you would have to de-compile it first. But there's another way. Burn it to a DVD. DVD's typically have 4.7 GB of storage space and if the file is larger than that, then its bigger than any file I have ever seen.
