The important part is that there's no warrenty, but you can otherwise do whatever you want with the software. (Use it, sell it, publish it, modify it, sublicense, put it on a cd, burn the cd...). Just don't remove the copyright and license.

You can take the software and do whatever you want with it. Build a service, distribute it on your spam-filtering appliance, make a million bucks, give changes back, don't give changes back - it's all allowed and encouraged.
