This is the problem I am having today, too. Since there hasn't been any response to your inquiry, I'm guessing the answer is available elsewhere? If so, I'm not finding it. Did you ever get this worked out?

This symptom can be caused by several things.

One cause (and the one I suspect to be most likely) is that you have an alternative MySQL config file somewhere else (like c:\windows) and it is being used instead of the one in The Uniform Server.

 

You may also see a similar error on Windows 7 when running older versions of The Uniform Server. This is due to the change to prefer IPv6 for localhost. You can see this by using a command prompt and doing a ping localhost. Instead of 127.0.0.1, you'll get ::1 as the resulting address. In general, MySQL doesn't like this; it's expecting an IPv4 address. Since the message is coming from MySQL, we can assume that the .htaccess isn't blocking you.

It also could be helpfull to empty your browser's cache after the password change.
