OS 10.4 - how to backup applications

hi, i'm about to run this adobe cleaning script to get rid of the Photoshop CS3 beta remains and it says you should backup your entire system before doing it (how insane!). I know how to copy my personal files to an external hard drive, but how i can't back up my applications. I suppose if i make an archive of each one and than unzip it into a newly installed OS (should i have to do it), they wont work. How can i back them up?

thanks for you replies

ps: has anyone had any experience with that cleaning script?
