Now this explanation of your problem seems very helpful :) You
probably corrupted some session related files for GNOME (I am guessing
you use that). One simple way out of this fix is that if you have no
special desktop settings, jsut delete ".gnome2" directory in your home
directory (is this correct? someone please verify this). You won't
lose your data/bookmarks.

You can delete it by (from CUI)

$ rm -rf ~/.gnome2

Try logging in graphically then. Hopefully, everything should work out fine.
