Actually i had already posted in an existing thread, but recieved no reply after about a week, and am kind of on a desperate end here, cause i really need to use my widget, especially when translating my Japanese.. so here is my problem, i cut and pasted it from the original thread i posted in.
Dashboard Translation Widget --> The "translate from" language is now Japanese, and the language it says to translate to now just says "undefined" for some reason. When I click to change the "translate from" language, it lists all the options, but when I click to change the other language, it says only English, and it is checked. Also, I can't click in the textbox to type. When I click the swap languages button, both boxes switch to saying English, and I can again only change the first language. Also, I see a Systran logo on the front of the widget, and can't click to view the back of the widget. After a quick google search didn't turn up much, I got kinda annoyed. Anyone seen this or have any suggestions? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
I actuallly had this problem the moment i bought my mac, but after formatting my mac, it worked fine, i just formatted my mac a few months back, and it's a hassle to format again, and i noticed that in the previous thread the person posting managed to fix it, so i am asking for a step by step on how to fix my widget, cause i'm still a noob in computers...
Thank you.

sorry, but found the solution... finally, my searching paid off i guess.. for those with the same problem, here's the solution, to save you the time of searching...
Open Finder and go into the Library->Caches folder located in your
home folder.
Go there to the folder named
DashboardClient
and delete it's entire contents (there will be sub-folder's named like
00, 01, 02, etc.)
Then go to the Library->Preferences folder and delete there the
file named: widget-com.apple.widget.translation.plist
