Is there a simple reliable keystroke / mouse click macro record / playback automation app?

can someone please point me to a shareware or
freeware app for  writing simple macros and recording
playing back keystrokes and mouse clicks
and general automation / scheduling app.
shareware or freeware.
***needs to be reliable.
