MySQL Database Query Builder Question

An excerpt taken from oneandone-

"The MySQL database is stored on a separate database server behind a
firewall to protect your data. You can only access this database server and
your database exclusively through your site. Direct access to the MySQL
database using a home PC (external ODBC connection) cannot be established."

I'm moving Host. Can you suggest anyone?

As an afterthought, I'd highly recommend that you have a good look at the
mySQL documentation in regards to security settings. It would be a good
thing to understand the issues *before* making changes. :)
