If you cannot find anything locally, I would recommend picking up this:

http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=9718

It is a USB cable with a built in FTDI Chip. Very good support for
Linux and Windows alike.

They also make cables that can be found at www.mouser.com that do not
have the 6pin .1 header, but bare tinned wires.
