If this is the old (non-epub) firmware for the 500 then Kovid says to stick with 0.6.29 which you can find here. Version 0.6.29 is the last version of Calibre that supports connecting to the PRS-500.

Update: Nevermind, what I stated only applies to OS X. Just follow Kovid's advice below. If you're not sure how to install Calibre's PRS-500 driver Kovid explains it here:
