Alpha6 Released

Again it's just another alpha version, but I'm confident that the next release will be named "Beta1" and will finally contain a new setup program.

Alpha6 reduces significantly the delay when infrared mode is switched to "IrCOMM2k" while Windows has just opened an IR connection. Furthermore, support for IrLPT (printing over infrared) has been added. To make Windows an infrared print server you still need some additional software, but you can already experiment with a terminal program to see what's possible.

Also several bugs were fixed, e.g. the multi-processor freeze or the boot delay under XP. Two issues are probably still pending (see bug tracker), so feedback regarding these problems based on the new version is welcome!
