For the phpmyadmin http://www.phpmyadmin.net/documentation :

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] string
     What php MySQL extension to use for the connection. Valid options are:

     mysql : The classic MySQL extension.

     mysqli : The improved MySQL extension. This extension became available 
with PHP 5.0.0 and is the recommended way to connect to a server running MySQL 
4.1.x or newer.

For your site, either rewrite it to not use the mysql extension or download it 
from a shady website which claims it's build for the PHP version you installed 
and hope it hasn't some nasty backdoor (Recommendation would be that you used 
a operating system which provides php and all the extensions without requiring 
you to go to 3rd party pages).
