I'd defer to the folks in the licensing program, but my memory is that the
entire Flash Player Installer is available for licensing. (If you visit the
Macromedia site in the IE/Win browser then the site will install the Flash
Player in ActiveX format to your system, but the standalone installer
itself contains both the ActiveX format and the Netscape Plugin format.)
