Doesnt matter what video card you get 256 megs or above really. They will all pretty much play most current MMPORG's with some tweaking in the games settings. However, three things I noticed you don't have which you will need as much as a graphic card.
1/ Doubling your ram (Or even 2 gigs). Most new MMPORG's chew through ram and 500 megs wont cut it. Not when you are running firewalls and anti-virus and whatever.
2/ A sound card. Using the motherboards own sound chews up excessive ram as well and sound cards are cheap to buy and will speed up your gaming expereince as well.
3/ Online MMPORG's need broadband nowdays. Or be prepared for days AND DAYS of updates.

Like World of Warcraft? I have a GeForce 4 Ti4800SE with 128MB on it and it works very well, although I would like to get a 256MB card (which is what I would suggest). Do not get the GeForce 6200 though, I have seen nothing but problems with those. Check out TigerDirect:
