For IR signals, I've found this technique far more easier than a scope; feed
the output of a 3 pin IR receiver into the linein of your sound card and
record the signal using any sound editing software (GoldWave for one, free
for personal use). You can then expand the signal frame in the editor window
itself, letting you easily analyse the pulses.

Here's a page that does it with a simple photodiode; does not even require
the IR module.
