Yes, you might reencode them in virtualdub. But if I were you I would hold off a little. From what I've read in various places, a tool for direct conversion (without reencoding) from divx3 to divx5 compatiple, should be in the works.

But I'am not making any promises, I'am not even sure it's theoretically possible.

Just want to know if somone knows about a tool for direct conversion, pretty much not using my puter nowadays since im converting my Movie collection from div3 to div5 for my x-card, not complaining since my x-card is worth a little x-tra work, but it would be good to be able to use the puter for something else the upcoming 5-6 weeks

I'am sorry to disappoint you (and getting your hopes up in the first place).

From what I hear this project isn't makeing much progress.

But again, my knowledge on this subject it completly based on rumors, posted in places like the divx.com forums, which is not exactly the most reliable source of information.
