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.  Linux, anyone? ;-)

Absolutely. From a straightforward reading it precludes peer-to-peer
file sharing too.
