thank you. I applied this registry patch and I can see Firebird :)
I was able to get "successful" in test coneection. but after I click OK,
I get "failure has occured while loading the type".
any ideas?

The solution from Robert Simpson is the only thing that worked for
me. Follow the steps on the blog as you've done, but use the registry
file below (cut and paste it into a file provider.reg). After pasting
make sure to change the file path (if it's different from c:\program
files\firebirdclient).
