You can use a virtual machine, VMware or Qemu and run a copy of Windows from there which you can run all kinds of software that won't touch your physical machine , or use Altiris SVS and Sandboxie which virtualize software, making it possible to install software without registry hell or clutter. Or You can use Returnil where you can revert actual changes to your hard drive upon a restart. Or if you have an old box you can use that as a "test" machine. As an alternative.
