Hi.

Thanx for the quick reply. Also I have solved the problem allready. Well,
maybe solved is the wrong word, quick and dirty would be more accurate :)
My whole gnome desktop was screwed up, so I deleted my .gnome directories.
I'm not the most patient guy.

I learned where to look for the localized files in case the need arises 
again, thanx. :)
