Never download subtitle files that end in .exe , .bat , or .scr . Legitimate subtitle files are strictly text-based.
For automated loading, most desktop media players require the subtitle file and the video file to have the exact same name, sitting in the very same folder (e.g., SSPD-175.mp4 and SSPD-175.srt ).
Some malicious sites will prompt you to download a specific "codec" or player to view the video or subtitles. These are almost always trojans or adware.
