Sorry about the weird threading, but I did not, for some reason, get the original posting. This is a rebranded Prolific device, and drivers and such are available at http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/Products.asp?ID=59 Many folks have experienced problems with it, but it looks like it just takes a bit of fiddling.
