IIRC MySQL on win32 has only one user ... root with no password.

Port is the same as the default setting ... so to connect without creating
anymore users you'd just do

mysql_pconnect( 'Localhost' , 'root' , ''  )

(off the top of my head .. the ordering  of the arguments might be wrong but
you get the idea ;) )
