It is marked as Adware, so odds are it installs toolbars, browser helper objects, or activex controls that will launch popups and collect personal information from you.

If you want extra anti spyware use something reputable.

http://www.superantispyware.com/
http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
http://www.safer-networking.org/index2.html

The free versions all work fine with NOD32.

Yes, the SpywareCease is known to trigger severe false positives, I don't recommend it.
