Ubuntu

I have downloaded wicd and it detected the network but when I try to connect it says bad password although I typed my WPA2 password right. Can anybody help?

When you start WICD and you try connecting, check at the bottom of WICD and make sure it says it is connecting to the correct network. If not then you need to reboot. I had a problem with the same thing the last time they changed out our modem...my system was still trying to connect to the old network (2wire832) even though I had created a new (2wire900) network connection. The only thing I could do to fix it was to reboot.

It is connecting to the right network.
I'll try to turn off the encryption completely and then reconfigure it in Ubuntu. Will this render Windows unable to connect? I think the problem is in the fact that the network was configured using Windows.

That really shouldn't matter, once the router is configured, it's set in stone.
Have you tried restarting WICD or the machine itself? It shouldn't render Windows unable to connect but you might have to modify your Windows settings to not use the password.

EDIT: Are you selecting the right options in WICD? WPA, WEP key? There are several options, I'm not sure which one you need.
Also, when things fail, check the output of dmesg command and look for helpful things near the end of the output.
