This section allows you to view and manage the current connections
      to the server (also called threads). If you have the
      PROCESS privilege, you can see all threads. If
      you have the SUPER privilege, you can also
      terminate threads other than your own. (Note that the
      SUPER privilege is available for MySQL servers
      as of version 4.0.3 only.) Otherwise, you can see your own threads
      only. See SHOW PROCESSLIST Syntax, for more
      information. See Privileges Provided by MySQL, for more
      information on the PROCESS and the
      SUPER privilege (and other available privileges
      as well).
    
When you click the Server Connections section You will see an additional thread for the user you logged in as because the values displayed are retrieved from the MySQL server via an additional separate connection.
