Register OCX from IE hosted winform

I'm using the DSOFramer OCX in a winform hosted in Internet Explorer. The OCX
has to be registered using regsvr32 before it can be used on the client.

We don't want to go to every client PC to manually register the
dsoframer.ocx -- is there a good way of doing this programmatically?

Is there a way to detect whether the OCX is registered before trying to use
it? Currently an exception is thrown in the InitializeComponent() function of
the user control -- this is shown as a FusionBind error in Temporary Internet
files and the winform doesn't load. Ideally, we'd like to detect whether the
OCX is registered and if not, display an error message on the web page
