Failing that, you could try deleting some or all of the following files and 
directories (having first made a copy, so that you can restore settings at a 
later time):

.gnome
.gnome2
.gnome2_private
.gnome-desktop
.gnome_private
.nautilus
.nautilus-metafile.xml

They should be recreated at the next login, reverting to default settings.
