The Microsoft Speech API (SAPI) does speech recognition (I have no idea how
good it is, however).  It has a COM interface which can be used by EuCOM.
I've used it to have the computer speak, but I haven't tried much with 
recognition.  You may need to download the SAPI SDK (you can use SAPI usually
on Win2K and XP without additional d/l, IIRC) in order to get the docs and 
the typelib's needed for wrappers.
