Description:
Upon removing a user from MA by right-clicking, I always get an error window saying: Could not retrieve user information from server MySQL Error Nr. 0

How to repeat:
1.  Select a user to remove.
2.  Right-click on user and select remove user.
3.  Confirm removal by clicking Yes.
4.  Get popup error message.

Suggested fix:
I believe that it is because there isn't a selected user anymore, but it tries to retieve info about the user (that doesn't exist now).

Either make another user selected automatically after you remove one, or don't try to refresh information if a user isn't selected.

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been committed to our
source repository of that product and will be incorporated into the
next release.

If necessary, you can access the source repository and build the latest
available version, including the bugfix, yourself. More information 
about accessing the source trees is available at

Additional info:

Was able to reproduce it with a server without the anonymous user.
