So I am attempting to run php 4.3.4 & Mysql 4.1.1 & apache 1.3.9 and
cannot get them to connnect with Passwords... Works fine without
Passwords... but not very secure.. Then I come across this:

<<[Editor Note: [********************]
<<The password hashing was updated in MySQL 4.1, you must use the MySQLi

But according to the Manual Proper:

So which is it???


Do these new Mysqli extensions work for Winsows or not???
How do I enable them???

I have gotten responses from a few people with the same problem and no
real answers.
