One way is to setup an install routine.  A decent package that's free is
called inno setup.  It creates a setup.exe that will install the dll (or
whatever other programs you want) and will do things like register the dll
automatically.  It bundles everything together, creates an uninstall program
and quite a bit more.  There's a visual front end from a company called
tafab tools (http://www.tafweb.com).  It's free as well (at last check).
