Don't need GetConnection, just Connect normally

In IBO you simply call 'DisconnectToPool' rather than
'Disconnect' ( or ReleaseConnection ) and IBO saves the
connection to the pool and will use it again when you try
and reopen a connection with 'Connect'. IBO was there first.

It doesn't support some of the current stuff <g>
