Two factors here:

1. You have downloaded a very old beta version of Firebird. Get RC2 but
pick the Luis Forra "unofficial" kit because it is more complete than the
official one. (Go to the IBPhoenix site to get access to the unofficial kit).

2. You have the wrong client program (gds32.dll). Make sure that the
version number on the client and server programs match. (Before
installation, rename the existing gds32.dll that is in your Windows system
directory and perform a complete uninstall of old InterBase and Firebird
artifacts).
