WaltZ - Sounds like you had a network problem and it was something completely unrelated to the Progressive Widget. There is nothing whatsoever in the widget that would cause problems with other widgets. The Yahoo Widget Engine and the Progressive Traffic Widget simply do not work that way. I would suggest that you go ahead and delete the Traffic widget and restart the Yahoo Engine if you don't want to use the widget.

Once I installed this widget, NONE of my other three would work correctly. A weather app, a Sirius tuner, and one other widget. NONE would connect to garner data. EVEN after I rid myself of this application.

I can't use this widget with the drives I've defined on Traffic.com account. That makes this widget much less useful to me than just loading my personalized traffic.com feeds into an RSS reader widget

This is good for the metro areas but most people don't live in the metro areas but still would live to know the flow of traffic in a new area that move to until they have got use to traffic on the interstates or major highways that are used. So can one be made for the other cities that have major highways or interstates that they travel everyday? I lie in Georgia but i live around a military base that runs into an interstate from the main gate and traffic is terrible in the morning and in the evenings, so I that side streets to avoid heavy traffic or accidents on I-85.

The widget gives you a list of roads to choose from for you commute. Unless you only drive the major interstates,don't bother. Use google traffic; it shows all roads in a given area.
