Default Connector Issue

I'm missing one connector for these plugs
http://static.flickr.com/47/131626536_15f38a32ac_o.jpg

Connectors like these are all proprietary right ?
What can I do ? Is there such thing as a universal connector for this
purpose ?
Thanks

Nope, that's a Molex.

If it was me, I would get hold of a discarded PC ATX Power supply which has
a large 20pin Molex connector which could be carefully cleaved with a craft
knife to leave a connector which would fit your socket. On the ATX connector
there are around four or five suitable pairs, leave the wires in place to
connect to, a simple insulated block connector would for that. Of course I
know that the purists here are going to say you should buy a new plug, but
no one will be able to tell you where to get a single unit, and anyway this
is more satisfying. Also to be considered is, that if you do manage to get
hold of a suitable plug kit, you will need a crimping tool to connect your
wires.
