SECURITY ALERT: How to avoid snooping by SQL MONITOR

Hi,
SQL MONITOR supplied with Borland Delphi C/S is a great little tool when it comes to debugging your application or to identify and understand the activity created by different SQL statements.

Its a standalone application which, when run, lists every line of SQL command sent to the server and lists every bit of information received back.

And that's where the problem begins. Using this tool, a user can "listen" to every bit of conversation carried on between the application and the server. AND THAT INCLUDES PASSWORD, among other things.

Does someone know of any way to, optionally, disable the snooping by SQL Monitor and/or enrypt the traffice between the application and the server???

Thanks a lot!!!
