Isnīt it possible to tunnel MySQL connections through ssl?
Under Linux stunnel does a great job encrypting protocols that use a single port for
connections. I think it would not be hard to port stunnel to other platforms.
Under Windows I guess PuTTY (freeware, source available) or one of its related 
applications
(Plink?) (<http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/>) can handle client side
tunneled connections.
