    The FAQ provides a simple answer to your question: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/support/faq/

    See General Question 4.

    There is a copy of the EULA on the CD-ROM in the root directory. It's name is eula.1033.txt and it contains the same license provisions that I recall seeing in on-line download license acceptance windows and in any installer license acceptance.

    You should satisfy yourself that there is no condition on software that you build with the Express Edition. (There are conditions on any use of Microsoft redistributable components and you will need to satisfy yourself that any redistribution you make protects Microsoft interests in those components. The easy way is to avoid reliance on those components .)
