I did not reply to this the first time as I had previously asked that
you follow the lists convention on not top posting, and in addition
you had not even quoted the appropriate bits of the previous message.
However...

You have now confirmed that it is not a system wide problem but is to
do with that particular user's setup and so will likely be something
that has got damaged in a file in your home folder, probably one of
the hidden configuration files/folders (beginning with dot).

As far as what to do about it, do you keep a full backup of your home
folder?  Is so then you can replace the entire folder from the backup
(obviously take a new backup first so that you can restore any work
that you have done in the meantime).

Otherwise I am afraid I do not know.  Anyone else?
