Yes, there is one out that is "mold-resistant," not proof.  However, it 
isn't the norm and quite expensive.  It is imprinted "Humitek" or the newer 
one is "Mold Tough" and they are blue, not white.  Plus it costs 4 to 8 
times what regular sheetrock runs, I don't think you'll find much of it 
anywhere except in very expensive new building projects.  Plus, their escape 
clause has most folks walking away!
