According to Microsoft, following products come with MSDE.

(From http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/MSDEapps.asp)

1. Products that require an explicit selection to install MSDE: # .NET Framework SDK # ASP.NET Web Matrix # BizTalk® Server 2002 Partner Edition # Host Integration Server 2000 # Office XP Premium, Professional, Developer # Project Server 2002 # Small Business Server 2000 # SQL Server 2000, Enterprise Edition, Developer Edition, Personal Edition (RTM, SP1, SP2) # Visual FoxPro® 7.0 and 8.0 beta # Visual Studio® Standard, Professional, Academic, Enterprise (.NET release only - not 6.0) # Windows Enterprise Server 2003 RC1, only if UDDI is enabled * Windows Server 2003 RC1, only if UDDI is enabled
2. Products that install MSDE by default: * Application Center 2000 RTM, SP1, SP2 # Operations Manager 2000 RTM, SP1 # SharePoint^(TM) Team Services 2.0 beta
3. Products with the updated version of MSDE which includes SP3, and are therefore are not affected: * Windows Enterprise Server 2003 RC2 * Windows Server 2003 RC2

If you don't know if MSDE 2000 is installed or not, do as follows:

1. Right-click on the My Computer icon
2. Select Manage
3. Double-Click on Services and
4. Double-Click Services

  If MSSQLSERVER is in the list of services, the default   instance of MSDE is installed on the machine. Other   instances may exist, if they do they will be listed as   MSSQL$**** (where stars indicate the name of the instance)
