Windows 7/MySQL Connector/secure_auth problem

I was able to connect from my XP machine using the MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver (5.01.05.00) to our MySQL server (which I do not have admin access to).
I have a new Windows 7 box on which I installed the MySQL ODBC 5.2 Driver. When I try to connect from Win7 to the same database I get the error:
"Connection using old (pre-4.1.1) authentication protocol refused (client option 'secure_auth' enabled)".
I've tried this on two different Windows 7 machines. I was able to connect from Win7 using Workbench 5.2.47, but when I upgraded to Workbench 6.0.7 it wouldn't work unless I checked “Disable secure_auth”.
Those in charge of the server say that everything looks ok from their end and that it appears to be a client problem.
Is there anything else I can try from my end?
