My need to IR Blast is so I can Vol+/Vol-/PWR on my audio receiver using my PC remote. So I used a program called lmremote, and learnt the IR codes for my receiver, and mapped the Vol+/Vol-/Mute buttons to blast the receiver. I also made a little script that unmutes the audio whenever i push the mute button, so the mute button only powers on/off my audio receiver and doesn't actually mute the pc. The other thing i use lmremote for is if i a script for the MCE button. If you close MP to the system tray, then the MCE button can't launch/restore MP. So I made MCE button launch a script that looks in the corner of the screen for the MP icon in the system tray and if it finds the icon it double clicks it.
