Weirdness: Mysql query works fine on Netscape, access denied on IE

[Raptor]

The error is the common "access denied to user@localhost on database,"
or whatever the exact language is. (I email from Linux so can't copy
the exact wordage right now.) But like I say, it only occurs on IE
running on the woeful Windows ME. I haven't tried it on another flavor
of Windows. Netscape works just fine on whatever both OSes I have.

Here's the code, short and sweet:

// database variables
$userName = GetDBUserName();
$password = GetDBPassword();
$dbName = GetDBName();
$hostName = GetDBHostName();

$db = mysql_pconnect($hostName, $userName, $password);
