It is an MS-EXE executable program.  Anti virus doesn't find it because 
it is not an virus.  Spybot for the same reason.  To block these you 
need an smtp policy that does not allow executable attachments to 
incoming emails.

"What it does" could be anything from typing "hello world" in a dialog 
box (unlikely) to creating a new Administrator account on your 
corporate AD server and posting the entire contents thereof to an IRC 
channel (somewhat more likely).  But at first glance it looks like it 
is going to open a backdoor shell on the recipient's PC.
