I think one program that was mentioned was InCtrl3 by Neil Rubenking
at PC Magazine. It records all changes made to your system when you
install a new program, but it doesn't try to tell you what effect
those changes will have, as you seem to be asking about above. Anyway,
it's free, and you can find it at

I've used it a lot, and found it to be very helpful when trying to rid
yourself of those crappy programs that try to change things on your
system to suit themselves.
