Subject: entropy (S): meaning?

Dear Sirs/Madams,
In the frequency calculation of G98, it gives thermal enthalpies (H),
thermal free energies(G) and entropies (S) as well. For reaction
A+B-->C the enthalpy change of the reaction dH=H(c)-H(A)-H(B)=dH° at
T=298K. If dG=dH+T(dS)=dG° we can calculate rate constant for the
reaction. My question is:
1. Does (delta)S=(delta)S° ? Why? 
2. What is the physical meaning of S given in g98    frequency
calculation?
3. Does the calculation of S include the all motion    states of a
molecule ? What is included and what is    not?
4. Is there a way to calculation dG° using g98 ?
I would appreciate your time and replies.
Thank you very much.
