Download the sources for InterBase Open Edition and compile them yourself and 
distribute them with your application or pick the windows version up from 
http://mers.com. You cannot refer to the compiled binaries as InterBase.

The opensource version is suppiled in source form only and there is no 
warranty expressed or implied.  The code for the opensource version is suppose 
to be the same as that of the current certified release. It is up to you to 
decide if the trade off of money vs certification is a good one. There will be 
those that will and those that won't

Sorry I am not of more help.
