Girder
Girder is awesome! As its web site claims, it really is "the ultimate windows automation tool." It is 100% flexible. You can configure it to do pretty much anything. It can take any type of input (keyboard, mouse, IR remote control, internet, other programs, etc.) and then, based on your configuration, it can generate any type of output. I have it set up so that my X10 remote can control a lamp in the room, control Winamp, activate my computer's screen saver, and make the computer verbally announce the current time.

It takes a little while to figure this program out, but it's well worth it.
