    Open up the Web Part Gallery and upload your DWP file there (see info in this tutorial http://www.datasprings.com/Resources/ArticlesInformation/Sharepoint2007CustomWebParts.aspx)

    However, as people are stating in other comments, it is generally considered “better” to deploy webparts as features: http://www.sharepointnutsandbolts.com/2007/05/deploying-web-parts-as-feature.html
