Aside from the EULA discussion, we have found so many things that won't run on 2003 Web Edition that we don't use it any more. It makes a great web server if that is all it will do - forever! But if you ever plan on adding other capabilities, you might find that they won't run.
Included on the "other things list" might be: Declude F-Prot AVG Norton Sniffer ... These may have dependencies on things which are not included in Web Edition. Think of the "Web Edition" as a "WWW edition", which is specifically designed to run WWW related processes (ie. Web server), not other processes which commonly transport across the web (ie. Mail, FTP, ...).
