You should not send a password at all. Put your password in a
file at a safe location on your server (you can always protect it
with .htaccess), then let your program read this password and
send it to MySQL.

Also, look for a different ISP. They should make things easy, and
there are plenty who know how to do it. No problem at all. If you
are looking for an account in the US and need personal advice,
contact Glen Pipkin at AllWebCo@stripped, for example.
