WinMySQLadmin 1.4 New Install Questions

[crismahn]

I just install XAMPP 1.7.0 and XAMPP 1.7.0 Patch2. Seems to be functioning properly.

However, there is a small thing that seems like a glitch to me. Whenever I start/restart my computer (Window XPPro SP3) I get an icon in my system tray for WinMySQLadmin 1.4. It looks like a traffic signal. When I click on it a WinMySQLadmin 1.4 console opens up.
This is what I see under the environment tab:

Questions:
1. Before installing the Patch I am pretty certain that this WinMySQLadmin 1.4 console was linked in the menu pane on the left side of my XAMPP Welcome screen. After the Patch was installed, the link was gone. Am I right about this?
2. Why isn't Windows XP listed across the top?
3. In the OS Platform it says "Whistler"- what is up with that?
4. In the MyODBC Window it says "Not Found, Driver 2.51 Not Found". Any worries there?

This is what I see under the StarCheck Tab:

Question:
5. Notice the "Fatal error: not found any MySQL Server for NT OS". Any worries there?

Here is what my XAMPP Control Panel shows:

All appear to be normal and all appears to be functionng normally.

Question:
6. Do I really need to pay much attention to the WinMySQLadmin 1.4 console?
7. Can I stop it as a service to keep it from opening everytime I start my machine?

Thanks very much,
Chris

Don't use this software.

Thanks for the response. Its not like I chose to use this software. It installed with the XAMPP 1.7.0 package. Although, as I said, I think that Patch2 may have attempted to remove it- out of sight anyway. I just wonder why it installs with the package and how do I get rid of it? Does deleting winmysqladmin.exe from C:\xampp\mysql\bin folder do the trick? I assume that there must be some sort of start up entry that needs disabling also?

I disabled it as a start up item. On restart- all seems well.

This annoying software produced the same lil error on my Server 2003 PC. It would start automatically at startup and I finally found it had added itself to the Start menu/programs/startup folder. Just delete the shortcut from the /Startup/ directory in your Start Menu and it'll quit popping up.
