"pirates" down at msfn.org:
http://www.msfn.org/...o...3605&st=266
http://www.msfn.org/...o...3605&st=268

indirectly pointed me here:
http://www.usb.org/developers/tools

Where a file (usb.if) containing an "official" list of USB Vendors can be found:
http://www.usb.org/d...tools/comp_dump

The list is supposedly maintained and kept up-to-date.

The format of the file usb.if is somewhat peculiar, so I wrote a small batch (Win2K/XP/2003 only) to convert it in a .csv file that can be opened/imported in any spreadsheet program, like OpenOffice.org or Excel.

For those interested in small batches, the file includes an easily reusable routine to convert from Decimal to Hex numbers.

Have fun. :P
