one planeteer to another
Here's the link, iStat pro is awesome.
Activate dashboard, click the circle with the cross in the lower left corner, then click the x in the upper left hand corner of the widget. That will remove that instance of the widget...if you want to remove it completely, you need to select the "Manage Widgets.." button and click the subtract to the right of the widget in the list.
You should look at this: http://www.apple.com/support/mac101/
Also, the Help menu is extremely handy in the Mac Finder (the visible part of the OS) and all the Applications.

Also, if you want to close a widget (but not delete it) you don't even have to hit the plus sign in the bottom left. Just hold the "ALT" or "OPTION" key and move the mouse over the widget you want to close. The "X" in the upper left hand corner of the widget will appear. Click it and poof, it's gone. Hope this helps.
Cheers

Cool, hope it helps or is useful. I love how OSX has many small little things that just work.
