For my InfraRed Transceiver project, I have developed a driver with interesting capabilities. A few months later than planned, here is the first BETA release:

Example of possible buttons can be found here:

The good thing about it: You do not need the Hardware.
Why? So you can send MCE-Remote, Ctrl Alt Delete, Power Off, etc, etc from any script that communicates through a TCP port, like AutoHotKey. Sample script based on autohotkey's winlirc script is provided.
The driver really makes the computer think you have a MCE Remote and an extra enhanced USB keyboard. Other devices can be added from the software and is fully configurable. Any HID device is possible.
Use with caution as any bug in this kind of software can be fatal! But anyway, it works for me... Needs .Net 2.0.
