when phpmyadmin displays this error:

to change user password in wamp:
1. open phpmyadmin
2. click on privileges
3. click 'edit previelges' (little icon at the end) for user 'root'
4. scroll down to 'change password'. chuck in your password and hit 'Go'
5. repeat steps 3 and 4 for user 'localhost'
6. open your config.inc.php file from your wamp install directory. mine is c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin3.2.0.1/
