I thought i'd read a link to a driver for the one Maplins sells but they offer this Advise:

Q) im runnig windows xp, and the adaptor isn''t reconised by the OS. and i can''t find the setup file on the disk like the manual says. - sean

A) Insert the CD plug in the adapter Windows automatically finds the correct driver from the CD, NO setup file is needed for XP, check in device manager for the assigned port number under Ports COM and LPT

didnt come with a cd

thats e-bay for you

You can try the Prolific site as they make the majority of usb to serial converters Linky

As above, 99% chance it'll be a Prolific PL230x

Failing that, it'll be either a Silicon Labs (Cygnal) CP210x, drivers from http://www.silabs.com/tgwWebApp/public/web_content/products/Microcontrollers/USB/en/mcu_vcp.htm

Or a TI 340x. But thats 0.01% likely.
