Will the MS SQL version of Product Cart run on a website hosting MS SQL 2005 EXPRESS?

Wasn't sure if the "Express" version would limit Product Cart. It doesn't sound like it will from its description.

Thanks

Here is what a trusted hosting company had to say about it:

After extensive research and monitoring, it has been determined that the resource used by SQL express engine causes a dramatic performance decrease for the server. Futhermore, it creates security issues for the server. Unfortunately, we are forced to discontinue support for SQL Express database engine ...

As a result we cannot longer recommend using the Express version.
