A "daemon" is a general English term for a process that is meant to run forever in the background, without access to a display terminal. Threads are subcomponents of processes. It is not possible to run as an isolated "thread". Every process contains at least one thread, but can contain more if programmed correctly. Threaded programming typically is done so that a master or "manager" thread listens for an indication of incoming work to be done, and then dispatches this work to a new "worker" thread to handle the work, freeing the manager thread to listen for more incoming work.

Are Slaanesh Daemons good?

This question is very vague. As a Warhammer army, like any, they are only as good as the commander commanding them. Each army can win and lose, just depending on how they are fielded. On the other hand, going for the more literal interpretation of the question, no, Slaanesh Daemons are not good. In fact, they're rather evil. They seek to further Chaos by appealing to the lust in Mankind, and destroying their minds in the process.
