USB controlled water pump?

I am looking for a small water pump that I can turn on and off using a computer, preferably via USB. If someone could please post a link or a method of me doing this myself, I will be very appreciative.

Answer:

find the output positive and negative on the usb cable attach these to a solenoid or a relay. then attach the source that will power the pump to the pump, using the solenoid/relays contact pins as you would a switch. done. now just write a program on your CPU to control the usb output. for a diagram, email me at Ben@ Comcast

Here we can get USB Lab digital Input and Output data acquisition interfaces series are available in many different configurations. They support a wide variety of industrial automation I/O control, test and measurement applications by USB. For more details visit the following link and enjoy ...
I'd look for a USB IO module, add a relay, and switch a standard pump.
