Interesting software (free for non-commercial use)...

IRAssistant is a software which allows you to execute macros in your PC
with
a remote controller or other device (for example with a joystick!).
However,
IRAssistant can be used without any special remote controller device
because
macros can also be executed through the customizable button panel. Button
panel floats on the desktop over all open windows and the macros can be
executed by pressing a button on the panel.

With IRAssistant you can control your MP3 player, DVD player, TV card,
slide
shows etc. You can launch applications and control them with an ordinary
remote controller. You can even create macros which can be executed by
pressing a remote control button! Macros can be grouped to button groups
which will allow same remote control button behave in different way
depending on which button group is currently activated. Usually universal
remote controllers behave in the same way; you press the TV button and you
are able to control your TV and after you press VCR button, you are able to
control your VCR etc.

You don't need any separate plugins for applications to control them with
IRAssistant, IRAssistant can control almost all Windows applications.
However, if you want to use your favourite plugins in your applications,
that's also possible! IRAssistant can deactivate itself (release COM-port)
and allows the launched application to use the receiver. When the launched
application is closed, IRAssistant will be activated again automatically!
