Can I make install disks for existing downloaded software? Help...

I am not extremely well versed in computers, but I do know quite a bit, so please bear with me. I am seeking a way to create install disks for some programs I have purchased/downloaded from the internet on my old laptop. My situation is, my ex-roommate had installed a keylogger on my current laptop, and I am going to do a system restore and clean up on my current laptop. Is it possible to make an install cd for these programs, so that I can consolidate what I use to one machine? I can not afford to re-purchase these programs.

IF, it is possible, can someone please help me through it.

Commercial software usually contains a registration key. You won’t be able to reinstall the software with these keys. You don’t specify, but from your description, it sounds very much like you’re using Windows. You do realize this is a Linux forum, right?
