Problem Accessing the New Connection

Tried to create a new connection with connection named as admin and user named as admin. Password was set as 'password'.

Here is the error I got when I tried to test the connection:

Failed to Connect with MySQL at 127.0.0.1:3306 with user admin Access denied for user 'admin'@localhost(Using Password:YES).

Any ideas of what this might be?
