Normal DBMS such as Firebird, Interbase, MS SQL Server etc.

Firebird is free, open source and has small install, MSDE (desktop version
of MS SQL Server) is installed with MS Office, MS Visual Studio and some
other MS products. MSDE is redistributable (look
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/howtobuy/msdeuse.asp) but has restriction
for 5 concurrent connections (after that it will artifically slow down) - it
is usually enough for 50 actual users, and 2 GB databases.
