Problems getting Toolkit items to show up in Toolbox

Hello,

Using Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition 

I'm trying to get the Silvelight Toolkit items to show up in the Toolbox.  I followed these instructions (which are outdated but all I could find):

http://blog.enginefour.com/blog/post/Adding-Silverlight-Toolkit-Controls-to-the-Visual-Studio-and-Blend-Toolbox.aspx

The controls never appear in my Toolbox, only if I right-click and select "Show All" and then they are grayed out and unusable.

What magical voodoo do I need to make these tools show up?  Apparently there is something missing in the instructions I followed.

 The namespaces of the controls have changed in the march 2009 release of the toolkit
