To manually register a control do this:
1) Get the ocx or dll file on the machine you want to register it on.
2) Find regserv32.exe in the windows/system32 directory
3) Drag the ocx or dll file onto the regserv32 executable

or from the command line:

Start > Run
"regserv32.exe "

Either method should work.
