Can you:

$ gksu gedit /etc/wicd/wireless-settings.conf

safe the file as a backup somewhere and then: *edit out (snip)* the key
& then post the settings for the essid OpenNetwork? You should also edit
out the mac address - just be sure to verify the the mac ok ($
ifconfig). It should look something like this (taken from a wpa2 enabled
config, so ignore that part):
====
[<mac address here>]
afterscript = None
bssid = <mac address here>
ip = None
dns_domain = None
quality = 67
gateway = None
use_global_dns = 0

encryption = True
bitrates = 6 Mb/s
postdisconnectscript = None
beforescript = None
hidden = False
channel = 1
essid = .
has_profile = False
netmask = None
key = <key goes here>
predisconnectscript = None

dns1 = None
use_settings_globally = 0
use_static_dns = 0
