Belkin do provide OS X drivers for their converters
It's just not easy to find them, especially universal builds that work on intel macs. What's frustrating is that I would have liked to provide a link to the download site, but I can't find it anymore. I do have the driver installed on this machine, though (-:

As a side note to suggest they're intensely cynical bastards: Together with my adapter, they shipped mac drivers on a mini-CD. Which is great, except that there were no Macs with tray CD drives sold in the last 3 or 4 years.

Prolific provide OS X drivers for their converters
I was mistaken, the manufacturer I'd remembered was Prolific, not Belkin. The drivers available at http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/downloads.asp?ID=31 were the ones I was thinking about.

Sorry for the confusion; the point about Prolific being cynical bastards still stands, though (-:
