      The license has no more stringent terms than the Google Toolbar.... I suggest you do a comparison. Is there something in there in particular that bothers you?

      The license is designed to prevent others from commercially exploiting the code, and to disclaim liability over whatever evil uses users may find for the toolbar ;-) It's not like some sort of horrible Microsoft EULA where you're not allowed to review the product after using it.
