ethenand,
I have tried to locate a Microsoft USB IR transceiver and cannot locate any specific information on the MS website. Are you sure that this is a genuine Microsoft product? Check to see if it is made by Sigmatel or another vendor. Look for a sticker or label on the device.
It may also be helpful to ask you friend if he/she still has the CD that originally came with the IR transceiver.
