Can someone explain what this library does? Apparently, one of the things it does is allow automatic detection of SDKs. No, they don't mention what it does on their website :-(.

+4  A: 

It provides Python bindings for the Win32 API and for COM.

you can find many examples of use of win32com and other win32 packages in here.
In addition, Tim Golden's win32 How do I? and Mike Driscoll blog are very rich sources for win32 examples.

If you install Activepython you get win32all/pywin bundled and with a collection of docs on the package.

With ActivePython you also get a shell/IDE with tools to inspect and work with com objects
