Paint Shop pro or Photoshop for example. IrfanView should have the codec too but I'm not sure.

Irfan is probably the better one to use for this sort of thing. The download is smaller (under 1Meg) and since it opens so quickly you`ll probably be in the middle of saving it while PSP would still be opening.
 Best of all since it's freeware you don`t have to worry about nag requestors or any of that sort of stuff.

Stick to using PSP for actually creating art. Simple conversions are the province of a file viewer.

For plain conversion i'd say irfanview.  But PSP is better for image editing in general. I have both, if you can get them free you might as well have both too.

fs2mm can convert large numbers of pcx. files to bmps, assuming you want all the textures from a specific model.

Why on earth would he want to download Paintshop or Photoshop for a simple conversion? IrFanView is absolutely perfect. 100% free, small download, very fast, and incredibly useful for other functions as well.

I swear by this thing... it can do so much more than PS or PSP in terms of file conversion...

That's because the big one is in there: Paint. Be a real man and edit individual pixels like I do! ;7
