Something like this will do it in one step
http://www.acroname.com/robotics/parts/S22-USB-SERIAL-INT-CONN.html

The other way is to use an RS232 level shifter to convert between TTL
and RS232 levels http://www.pololu.com/products/pololu/0126/ and then
a USB->Serial cable

I haven't tried the acroname gadget but I suspect it will work fine.
You will need to use Device Manager to change the COM port to <= 4 if
you are using V5 of the IDE.

If you use the acroname gadget, post back about your results.
