Caleb,

Even if the IR transfer won't work (it's doubtful), you have another
option, one which I use all the time between my various Macs and my
Windows machines.

That option is StarGate, a shareware package which has both Mac (using
System 7.1+) and Windows (3.1 and 95+ versions) applications.  You only
need a null-modem cable hooked between the machines. It's pretty neat;
you have "Incoming" and "Outgoing" folders on each platform, and anything
placed in the out folder on one platform gets transferred to the in folder
on the other platform automatically when the programs are activated.
