I got this reported somewhere else as well (don't remember where though).
However, I cannot reproduce it.

Would you please tell me if:

$ dbus-send --system --dest=org.wicd.daemon --print-reply \
  --type=method_call /org/wicd/daemon/wireless \
  org.wicd.daemon.wireless.GetCurrentNetwork

works for you?
I correctly get my current wifi ESSID:

method return sender=:1.76 -> dest=:1.79 reply_serial=2
   string "PALEINO"

Regarding the conf-file syntax change from strings to lists: I did see this
once during development, but then never happened again, so I thought I did fix
it. You're already the second person hitting it, so it must still be in the
code (but then I wonder how I'm immune from this?)

Kindly,
David
