My apache is compiled with prefork.
My phpmyadmin must be used only from my internal  network with user and passwd
(I thought this ).  When I was looking at my access_log I saw that it was being used from and external ip.

The messages in my logfile is:

xx.xxx.xx.xx "GET /admin/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php HTTP/1.1" 200 14049 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.1) Opera 7.01 [en]"
xx.xxx.xxx.xx "POST /admin/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php HTTP/1.1" 200 - "http://xxx.xx.xx.xx/admin/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php\r" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.1) Opera 7.01 [en]"
 
Now I just remove some permissions until I find a real solution . I am using Centos 5.7.
 Cheers
