Anyone know anything about using a remote control w/your PC??

I just got a harmony remote and basically what I want to do is get some kind of IR adapter for my PC that will let me open winamp, change between songs and shuffle and what not, and turn it off, all from my Harmony remote.

Are there adapters out there like this? I figure there are since people have HTPC's now. If so, where do I get things like this?
 
Buy the Windows MCE remote kit from Newegg that comes with the remote and IR reciever/blaster

Basically use the MCE remote to teach the Harmony remote the commands
Than plug in the IR Reciever via a usb port and you should be good to go.
I use this to control my HTPC....
