The zip file approach may be your best bet.  However, you might also 
want to consider setting up your own user site; from within Stata, type

help usersite

It is a little more work, but it minimizes the risk that your 
programs will somehow get zapped as they go from you to other 
users.  It would also be handy if several people need to access the programs.
