Laptop as OBD 11 scanner?

Is there such a program where you can use a laptop to read codes and clear them?

Designed for gas engines, but it will read codes and clear them on the cummins. Not all functions work, but well enough to scan and read codes.
I used it primarily for my rock buggy project before I got the gauges installed.
There are others, but this is free, all you need to purchase is the adapter and a laptop with a serial port.
