Have you had a look at Microsoft's Driver Install Frameworks (http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/driver/in ... tools.mspx). It might make things easier for you, as the work of actually installing the drivers is done already.

Will you tell me more info about what file extensions are able to be registered and on what OS's?

Thanks,

Windows only! (C:\WINDOWS\system32\regsvr32.exe)
It should work with 'dll' and 'exe', but I have no ActiveX file to test it.
