IrDA Remote controlling

Hello,

I have aquired a brand new laptop with a built in infrared port. I also have a PDA with an infrared port, and that PDA has remote control software on it. I am looking for some kind of program (for windows) that can intercept remote control signals. I'm looking to be able to define what signal corresponds to what command (so windows xp media center is out). I would imagine there is some kind of open source solution for what I'm doing, but if it's proprietary, it's okay. I took a look at WinLIRC (http://www.tmeet.com/prog/register.php), but that only supports serial IR ports, so it won't work for me. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks. :D
