But it does not appear in wicd client.
I'd like to use WEP keys, and I see no refernce to that option in
prefernces tab... only WPA.
Anyone with experience on wicd could give me some help, plesae?
TIA,

Just click the tab next to each BSSID, and check "enable encryption".
Then, click the tab on what type of encryption, select WEP(hex), as
ASCII support is a bit limited. Enter in the relevent information and
join the network.
