Try mounting them using umask=000 in the options section. If you don't like the files being shown as executables use "showexec" or "noexec". showexec seems to work like "noexec", except for files with a DOS executable extension. Fe, the shell script foo will not run, but if you copy foo to foo.exe the latter will be executable. Also see man mount.
