SQL Authentication failing in SQLDriverConnect

I am using SQLDriverConnect from a C/C++ program with this connection string:

"driver=SQL 
Server;Server=.\myserver;Id=myname;password=mypswd;Trusted_Connection=False"

Even though "myname" is not a valid login, it successfully connects! The resulting OutConnectionString is:

"DRIVER=SQL
Server;SERVER=.\myserver;UID=SYSTEM;WSID=machinename;Trusted_Connection=Yes"

Is Trusted_Connection=False still supported in SQL 2005?

How do I get this to fail if the login doesn't exist?
