Hi,

First, if I install MySQL on a win32 system which are the default account and from which hosts can those be accesses? Which of these accounts am I encouraged to remove or change the password of? I know that the "root"/"" accounts needs to be changed but what else is there?

The initial accounts and what to do with them are described in the post-installation section of the MySQL Reference Manual:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Post-installation.html
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Windows_post-installation.html
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Default_privileges.html


Secondly, if I move like to move the entire C:\mysql directory to some other disk, can I do so without re-installing? If I need to change to registry setting and/or .ini configuration file, what key/files are these?

Yes, you can move it. You should specify the new values for basedir and datadir in the [mysqld] section of an option file. The allowable option files on Windows are described in the Reference Manual as well.
