Also you may refer to the detailed technical article on Irda programming
and different models.

From MSDN
The recommended approach to programming IrDA applications is through the
Windows Sockets API. Legacy versions of Microsoft Windows used the
serialized IrCOMM
programming method, which is not supported in Windows 2000 or Windows XP,
nor is it the recommended approach. So a part of IrCOMM programming exposed
through the windows socket APIs are supported in windows 2000 and XP.
