seemed to do the trick just fine, you can even program it to "convert" your remote control signal to whatever you want the PC to do (pause button of the remote = hit space bar, for example) but somehow it only seems to work with Infra-Red receivers plugged into the serial port.Sadly my laptop does not have a serial port, I only have an IR USB Receiver which seems to work fine, except
