    • User Controls are controls built with a designer within a web project. They typically are only private to a web application (Although there are ways you can make them available to other projects).

    • Server Controls are controls that are also known as Web Controls. These are reusable controls that render their html without the aid of a designer, they are created in a seperate assembly from the web application, are appropiate for controls which will be used in many different web applications

    • Composite Controls are a sub type of Web Controls and are controls which are made up (composed) of other web controls.

    I’ve never heard of a custom control to mean anything other then a control which is custom built by you or your team. And it could include user, web or composite controls.
