I could send you to some other places for a more in-depth description of what it does, but that link above gives you an overall idea |
Also, if you have Win7 Profesional and a multi core CPU, you can run it in XP mode. ALA sandbox in a virtual machine. XP mode for Win7 is a free download from microsoft.
Regarding the spyware and exe's not working. uh oh.. sounds like a bad case of "windowsxp/vista security suite". Its a bugger of a trojan loaded with spyware that is a PITA to get rid of.
Hope you get it worked out. btw, if you get a popup that tells you to buy the "premium" edition to clean your computer, DON't! Your credit card will be at the mercy of the idiot who infected your computer.
