   That could be a plugin such as Register Plus.

   or

   Don't think that can be a widget.

   If you want a widget for login then check:
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sidebar-login/

   or http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/login

   thanks.

   what is the difference between a plugin and a widget?

   A plugin is more 'generic' more 'blog-wide', where a widget is a plugin that provides a widget that can be used via Appearance->Widgets in your themes sidebar(s).

   but I have activated it and there doesnt seem a way I can make the widget come into my Appearance/Widget area. Is there a simple way of doing this?

    sorry, I am being a bit slow!

    I see it in the settings, I have set them how I need them, but how do I actually get it to appear on my site??? How do I make it appear so people can register???

    Use the Meta Widget to provide the register link or use wp_register in a sidebar.php.
