This could depend on a number of issues. Are they simple .ocx or .dll files, or are they tied to specific registry keys for licensing purposes. Are they machine ActiveX or Broswer ActiveX objects?

If it is a simple, stand alone file, then yes, you could back up the file, and restore it to another machine, but you would need to re-register it when installed on the new machine.

I had a customer with some Infragistics software, and it was near impossible to backup the software from one machine, and restore it to another, without the original installation key and media.

able to install these on another machine without having to visit each site
that installed them originally.
