same thing happend to my linksys 11b adapter. The plastic is pretty weak.
However, my adapter has still been working find despite the melted plastic.
Does yours still work?

open it up and save the mini-pci card that is in it (or pcmcia card). if you have a laptop with a spare mini-pci slot this can come in handy
