Photoshop can handle batch conversions of any image filetype to another.
It will automatically convert entire directories at once if that's what you want.
Look in the Photoshop File menu, and the rest will explain itself as you go.

ack... don't have Photoshop installed atm, so I can't give you a step by step howto, but I think it's either batch, or conversion or something similar.
I'm fairly certain it's one of those. Just go through the file menu and you should be able to suss it pretty easily.

(I have to reinstall Photoshop over the weekend, so if no-one else can help you in the meantime, PM me then)

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.. :(

Search your Photoshop help files for batch conversion abu. It's in there.

If that doesn't help, (it should though!) theres always Irfanview.
Never used it to do a batch conversion myself, but should be possible.

Edit: typo

Yeah, just checked and its very simple with Ifanview.
Batch conversion, right there in the File menu.
Couldn't be simpler.
