Have you tried using a static IP address? Young (Mark) experienced a
similar problem (see "Vista kills Ubuntu wireless") and I worked with
him off-list a few days ago. Seems that he wasn't receiving a dhcp offer
from the router when using wireless; reconfiguring the router &
reconfiguring wicd for a fixed IP got him connected.

Note: we're still not sure exactly where the problem is/was, but
configuring for a fixed/static IP for the ESSID seems to have done the
trick.
