WinRoute Pro - It is NAT, Firewall, Proxy server, Mail server software. Not dangerous if you know how to use such software. For lamers is dangerous due to the possibility for opening public proxyes or SMTP servers. Also by default the admin interface has no password and allows remote administration. It should be carefully configured before used!
