turn off your lights via your computer?

When win xp media came out i believe there was a plugin you could get to turn your outside/inside lights off and you use the electrical circuit as a network, so could you get this plugin for win xp home/pro?

thanks

Sounds like your talking about X10:

Have a bit of a google - not sure that some of the companies that sell kit also sell kit that competes with OcUK, so I won't mention any.
