You want to look at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/creating-ssl-certs.html and then the links on the right hand side.

To work with openssl in Windows - locate where it is and then go Start > Run > (type) CMD

Type: cd PATH_TO_OPENSSL_FOLDER Type: openssl ..... commands here .....

It will all depend on if you are purchasing an SSL certificate or creating a self signed one. Self signed are free and simple but purchasing one is deemed more secure / trusted.

On the OpenSSL website, there is a page for binary packages: http://www.openssl.org/related/binaries.html

I think that is what you want for Windows.

I can't say how good it will work. Also please clarify what you you want to do. You cannot "create SSL for MySQL in Windows". Do you want MySQL to have SSL encrypted connections perhaps?
