Ok, Its here:
NOTE: YOU MUST update the cameras firmware to 1.11 for this to work.
1)
PENTAX REMOTE ASSISTANT SOFTWARE
VERSION 1.00
Pentax is pleased to announce the release of the Pentax Remote Assistant for the *istD digital camera. The Remote Assistant allows you to use your computer to control functions on your *istD camera, while it is connected via USB cable. While having many standard camera functions and direct download capabilities under your control on the computer, the Pentax Remote Assistant also offers some "extended functions" as follows:
* Interval Mode / Timer Mode
* Extended Auto-Bracketing Mode

2)
PENTAX *istD FIRMWARE UPDATE
VERSION 1.11
CHANGES FOR V.1.11
* Version 1.11 of the *istD firmware will fully prepare your camera for use with the Pentax Remote Assistant software (available as a separate download). The Remote Assistant software will allow you to control various *istD functions from your computer.
CHANGES FOR V.1.10
* You can use the HyM (hyper manual) function when your lens aperture ring is set to a position other than the "A" position.
* You can use EV compensation in the M (manual) mode.
* If you are using the auto bracketing mode and the camera automatically powers down after a period of inactivity, the auto bracketing mode will not be cancelled.
Note that turning off your camera normally will cancel the auto bracketing mode. This enhancement only applies when the *istD engages its auto-power-off function.
* The file format and file system of the *istD are compatible with the EXIF 2.21 and the DCF 2.0 standards.
When you set [Color Space] in the *istD custom function menu to [Adobe RGB], your TIFF and JPEG image file names will change from "IMGPxxxx" to "_IGPxxxx" where "xxxx" is a 4 digit numeral.
