To be specific, mysql no longer offers pre-compiled binaries of older version of mysql such as the link provided. Your only option is to download a newer version of mysql (4.1) which is incompatible with the activeperl mysql lib that is installed..
you end up with:
[Error] Failed to connect to database: Error: #1251: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
the least you can do is add..
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/old-client.html
to the wikki so that users dont get frustrated like I did.. (Have to download everything from a cybercafe because I live in the philippines and the phone companies are retarded..)

Oh, and cavedude's autoinstaller wont auto-install the cavedude database.. And it deletes the files so I cant manually install them.. I also can't read any of the errors if any that pop up because the installer calls cmd to insert data to the sql database instead of using perl which can feed back errors.. I love it..
