Multiple Categories Widget Plugin

    Did an hour of Google-ing, found two plug-ins that are supposed to do what I'm looking for, but both don't work with my WP 2.2.1 (King's plugin and Breukie's plugin).

    I need to create separate widgets for different categories, i.e. widget A with categories 1,2,3 and widget B with categories 4,5,6.

    Anyone knows of a plugin that does this? Or how to hardcode it?

    I hardcoded it.

    There are two plugins as well that are supposed to do it, but they don't work on my WP 2.2.1.
    Breuikie categories
    King categories

    I've just tried both:

    King categories ==> fatal error
    Breuikie categories ==> doesn't work

    What I'm looking for is something that will create a new category box where I can add subcategories on my blog

    For example:
    A box titled 'Countries' and I could have info about US/Britain/France etc listed as sub categories.

    Any ideas how I could do this? If I continue adding categories to what I've got already it will get very long, messy and confusing.

    Check out the second link in my signature.
    On the left, there are "reviews by brand" and "reviews by format". That's how I hardcoded it : first box with categories a,b,c,d... and second box with categories e,f,g,h...

    If this is what you're looking for I'll give you the code to insert in your sidebar.
