Question '05 Corolla ECU Reflash

I'm just trying to figure out what I need in order to reflash my ECU. I think I already have the correct OBD2 software but I know I still need a cable to connect to the ECU for the actual reflash process. Any input is greatly appreciated and I thank you in advance.

Toyota ECUs are extremely difficult to reflash. Hondas are much easier. I am not sure if anyone cracked the ECU on a corolla.

Thanks...any idea how I might overcome this 'little' obstacle? If necessary I'll replace the ECU entirely but I'd like to explore all options before I go that route.
