There are such things out there but are generally on the expensive side. Your cheapest and easiest solution is to get a new video card. Something like an ATI Radeon 7000 with SVideo out can be aquired for less than $40 (http://www.pricewatch.com/).
If you *need* that "three prong cord" and you can't use SVideo, then you're going to have to shell out a couple more bucks for a higher end card, like an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro (http://www.pcworld.com/reviews/article/0,aid,104726,00.asp).
