Reading material. WinLIRC is probably your best bet.

Ah, my mistake... I was running under the assumption that USB, being a serial interface, would be fully compatible with LIRC...

USB-IR-Boy has a module for the linux LIRC to run using an USB IR module... mayhaps it can be adapted to WinLIRC?

This is a WinLIRC plugin for Girder, which is a software utility package for USB-driven IR devices such as USB-UIRT.

Try EventGhost, maybe that will do the trick.
