Download is okay - the code is running on the remote machine and needs a local (Java/.NET/ActiveX/WSH) licence to run there. I think you mean server-side DHTML. (Of course you can't run IIS on workstation versions of Win32 anyway.)The licence agreement does seem to suggest that you can't run CGI or PHP or other server-side code on Apache on XP Pro.
