I've got a similar problem with db4free.net.

When I try to access db4free.net's data from my webhoster who only supports the mysql interface (not mysqli) with API version 4.0.18, I can do this, if I use the old_password option, but I have found no way to get umlauts and special characters out of the database correctly :-(.

For example, the German word for Austria, 'Österreich', comes out as 'Österreich'. I've tried verious character sets and collation, but none of them returns the correct value.

Is there any solution to this problem? Would be very greatful ;-)!
