How Do I Modify my Connection String?

[cmcadmin]

I am getting this Error Message when I try to access my Forum:

Database error in vBulletin :

mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
C:\XXX\XXXX\XXXX\webroot\forums\includes\class_core.php on line 279

MySQL Error  :

I posted the problem over on vB.com and I was directed to try posting over here.

My host is insisting that after a change they made to the server, that I need to modify my connection string with this:

$connect = new COM('ADODB.Connection');
$connect->Open("DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver}; SERVER=$mysqlServer;DATABASE=$mysqlName;UID=$mysqlName;PWD=$mysqlPass;");

I have no idea where I need to make this change.

Help is Welcome...
