Free SQL Tool

I have an SQL test at a firm so I want to brush up on some stuff. Is there a free SQL that I can download that comes with a sample data base.

I'm looking for something that I can set up quickly. I need to practice SELECTs, UPDATEs, DELETEs, amd INSERTs. I do not need to deal with the configuration aspects so the more stuff that is pre configured the better.
 
Go here.

Download "MySQL 5.0 Community Server - Generally Available (GA) Release" , the "Windows Essentials" version (assuming you run on WindowsXP).

It installs with a click.

Part of the installation includes automatic configuration.
Set it up for a Developer's machine, maybe 5 connections at a time, and if you want to make it super easy you can let it install the server as a Windows service so that you don't even have to worry over how to turn it on. WIndows will start it for you when you boot.

I think it includes a sample db in the installation, but if not you can download one from MySQL.

All free.
