To remove an ActiveX control, follow these steps:

- Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, double-click
Add/Remove Programs, and then click the Install/Uninstall tab.

- Click Start, click Run, type the following line in the Open box, and
then click OK:
regsvr32 c:\windows\occache\<filename>.ocx /u
where <filename>.ocx is the ActiveX control you want to remove.
NOTE: If you do not know the file name for the .ocx file (ActiveX
control) you want to remove, you may be able to determine the file
name by looking at the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) source of a Web
page that installs or uses the ActiveX control. To view the HTML source
of a Web page, right-click an empty area of the Web page, and then
click View Source on the menu that appears.
- In Windows Explorer, click the .ocx file in the Windows\Occache folder,
and then click Delete on the File menu.
Regsvr32.exe is installed by Microsoft Internet Explorer and can be used
to register and remove registry entries for ActiveX controls.
