Saving programs to memory sticks (or CDs or whatever else), usually will not enable them to be installed on another machine.
First, it's very difficult to find all the visible pieces of complex software applications. They're sometimes in directories other than the application's main one (the C:\Windows directory, for instance). Sometimes they're even dependent on other things already on the machine.
Second, application installs often store critical bits of information in a huge system file called the Registry. It's usually not possible to pull out all the pieces you need, and it's impossible to copy the Registry from one machine to another without wrecking the second machine.
Sorry.

Just copy the whole program (Installation package too) on a thumb drive if it is big enough. And then transfer it to the other pc as you would anything else. Another way to do this is through a Direct Link USB cable. Technically though this may not be legal.
