I got a similar issue and after a few hours of digging in, I found out a solution. You need to go to Regedit and find by name your dll. Visual Basic 6.0 IDE registers it in the registry so it's not possible to remove it from IDE UI. After removing key in Regedit and restarting IDE, unwanted reference disappeared.

Usually the components appear after adding a reference throught Project->References. You can surely google wich dll is associated with which ocx.
