Hi, I think that solution to your problem could be  Multiblock module 
(http://drupal.org/project/multiblock):

Drupal's block module is limited by the fact that a block can only have 
one instance. Each block has a 1:1 relationship with its region, weight, 
visibility (and other) settings. This means that it is impossible to 
have blocks in multiple regions or to have blocks that have different 
settings on different pages. MultiBlock module solves this problem by 
allowing you to create multiple Block Instances of already existing 
blocks. Please read the README for more information.
