What's the name of the OCX that is required? This is not a bug but IMO it should be noted in the installation docs.

I found this on phpbuilder.com. Cannot verify if it works since I have no such problems:

Find a copy of MSCOMCTL.OCX. You can get it off of an existing Windows 2000 computer or from the web. I downloaded the Visual Basic 6 Service Pack 5 and extracted it out of MSCOMCTL.ZIP. 

Copy MSCOMCTL.OCX into the C:\winnt\system32 folder and run: 

REGSVR32 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\MSCOMCTL.OCX

It turns out that this file can be downloaded from http://www.compuniac.com/yahtzee/download/mscomctl.ocx among other places. Could you please try the described fix and tell us if it worked.

Let's make a faq out of this as it appears others have this problem too.

Some good information also provided in here by Phil Driscoll:

As of PHP 4.3.4 the installer is no longer dependent on 
any ocx controls.
