I installed phpmyadmin and it works fine, but it doesnt ask for login or anything.... so everyone can go to the page and change mysql database and stuff....
How can I "protect" that....
Thanks for any help.

Go onto google, and search for .htaccess

Edit your phpadmin config file as per the installation instructions to use cookie or http authentication (read the bits in the
documentation called 'Using authentication modes:' and 'Configuration'). You do need to have set up usernames and passwords on the MySQL database for this to work in a secure way (highly recommended anyway for security). Is there a reason why you didn't read the readme file when you installed the program?

I set the thing to cookie
$cfgServers[$i]['controluser'] = 'blah';
$cfgServers[$i]['controlpass'] = 'blah';
$cfgServers[$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
So I go to admin page now it asks me to enter username and password
What do I enter?
I tried to enter my admin and blah stuff it tells me
Access denied for user: 'blah@[host stuff]' (Using password: YES)

I've never used phpMyAdmin, but from looking at the variables you pasted it seems the user and pass for the account are blah.
