Sync MS SQL 2005 to MySQL DB?

OK, I am a long time computer enthusiast, but I am very new to Databases. I have a MS SQL 2005 database which I need to sync with a MySQL database (for a website). I am willing to buy off-the-shelf software, but I don't know where to start really.

My needs are small. I just need it to copy several rows (about 7) from 1 table in my MS SQL DB to one table in the MySQL DB. From there I need it to change some variables using (basic) conditional logic. IE If stock count is less than 10, mark as "0". or If price is less than $10, add 10% + $1. It all seems like childs play really.

I found DBConvert which would sync the information but would not convert the variables in any way. Can anyone suggest a better software? It doesn't need to do anything more than what I'm asking here and it doesn't need to be free.

If you can live with something that is included with SQL 2005 and can do much more, create a SSIS package to do what you need.
