Re: Bad handshake

I'm actually statically linking the library libmysql.lib with my 
executable at compile time, rather than dynamically linking the dll. And
I'm linking with the version that comes packaged with server version 
4.1.10. So I'm pretty sure that's not the problem.

Besides, as far as I'm aware, version 4.1.10 (which I installed), is the 
only version of the server that has ever been installed on the computer,
so I don't think there would be any previous versions of the client 
library floating around.
