There are a few programs you can use. FreeScan, Datamaster and WinALDL come to mind. I'm not sure if TunerPro supports your ECM yet.
For a cable there are many places. If you have a serial port on your laptop you have more options available to you. I only have USB and went nuts trying to find a USB-Serial adapter to go with my WOT cable... until I just ate the $65 and bought a Moates ALDL cable CABL1 and the APU1 adapter.
