WARNING: Entrecard Chicklet Widget (Update: Problem Fixed)

Entrecard Chicklet
A few blogs in the Entrecard network are running the Chicklet Widget which shows the ad price and popularity. Unfortunately the domain hosting the widget has expired. Visitors to blogs displaying the widget are redirected to a holding page.

Please note this is not a problem with Entrecard. The problem is an independent widget called the Entrecard Chicklet. I've tried to contact the author of the widget without any success.

To avoid losing any more visitors I suggest removing the Chicklet Widget from your blog until the issue is resolved.

Update: I contacted the author this morning and he's resolved the issue. The widget is working again and hopefully bloggers won't lose any more visitors.
