I am having the same problem, also trying to use the widget in the loop on the front blog page using the Semiologic theme.
Using something like,
<?php the_author(); ?>
will print the author of the first post on every post listed on the front page.
The same code works fine with PHP Code Widget, but I would also like to take advantage of the advanced options your widget offers.
Deleting my cookies, as suggested by a previous post, worked for me.
This is actually an ASCII encoded file opened in an editor (such as Notepad) which only supports ANSI encoded files. The little squares you see in the image would be line breaks. Wordpad is able to handle both ANSI and ASCII files.
