 Hello,

 I manually upgraded a blog from WordPress 2.7.1 to 2.8.3, overwriting
 /wp-admin/
 /wp-includes/
 /*.php excluding the config file

 Previously i had a Text block added in my theme (modern-wordpad) from the
 Widget section and had some HTML code in it and a custom title. Now in the
 newer version it has dissapeared from the admin and website.

 Also accesing http://www.myblog.com/wp-includes/default-widgets.php being
 logged in as an admin throws the following error: Fatal error: Class
 'WP_Widget' not found in /usr/local/www/wp-includes/default-widgets.php on
 line 15

 I attached some screenshots to make it a lot clear.
