Two icons instead of one

Hi,

I’m trying to set up the plug in so that external links on my website are marked with an icon.

The result so far is that an external link on a page is marked properly, but the same link shown in a side bar widget is displaying two icons. That’s a bit too much, but how do I get rid of the second?

Thanks for helping.
