I'm surprised that I've never before heard of it. The home page appears dead.

Good find! I seems it lived only around the 2006-2007 era. The download is a trial software. I might be impossible to find a "key".

You might ask on the Remote Central or Cocoon Tech fora. There may be some users or someone who remembers more about it.

Another option to integrate all different protocols and control systems.  OpenHAB - http://www.openhab.org/

I've been using iHouse with my X10 deployment and since it's developer has stopped supporting this several years ago I've been looking for the next option.  I use a Z-Stick with iHouse along with my X10, but am now starting to build my own sensors and actuators using Arduino's.  OpenHAB fully supports Arduino's as well.

dhouston:
OpenHAB is Java based. Java has long been regarded as the most insecure of all programming languages and I will not allow it on any of my computers. It's the only software I dislike more than AHP.  >*<

The Department of Homeland Security recommends removing/disabling Java.

HA Dave:
I wonder if this device would allow a redirect of a z-wave or INSTEON commands.
