I am a member of the network group and I have installed:
python
pygtk
dbus and its glib and python bindings
dhclient, dhcpcd
wireless_tools
net-tools
gksu
I ran a complete update with # pacman Syu and everything else seems to work ok.

Silly question but did you put dbus and wicd in your rc.conf daemons?
Offline
please use [code ] [/code ] tags when pasting output or files. Makes it easier to read.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

Sorry about the code I don't know how to do that yet.
Anyways the advice worked I just added wicd and dbus to the daemons section of rc.conf and rebooted the computer then it was complaining about user not belonging to the users group so I added myself to that group and rebooted and now it promps me for a password but the program starts and it got me connected to the internet. thank you very much for the quick reply.

I did tell you how to do it in my previous post.
you just enclose your output and or file with [code ] [/code ] tags (without the spaces of course). No need to worry about this thread, just so you know it for future threads
oh and welcome to Arch

What kind of password does it prompt you for? Your root password or your network password?

Did you background the dbus daemon as well as the wicd daemon in your rc.conf at boot? My roommate had this issue and it was resolved by not backgrounding the dbus daemon and restarting. Also, silly question, but have you tried just doing:
# /etc/rc.d/dbus restart
# /etc/rc.d/wicd restart
# wicd-gtk
