Has Anyone Answered This Yet
I had the same problem. I didn't actually drag the widget out of Dashboard however. What I did do was run SOCKS (latest version as of this date) and restart. When the desktop came up a version of Yellow Pages Business from widgets was there and there does not seem to be a way to remove it...it does not show up when you look in Finder at the desktop but it is very much there and operational but you cannot remove it, hide it or take it off the desktop!
Thoughts anyone?
I am on a Mac Mini 2.16-Mac OS X Snow Leopard
