Strange Gnome Problems...

Hello, my Gnome setup suddenly started acting strange, which makes it more or less unusable...

1st of all i have this:http://carnager.dyndns.org/~carnager/gnome.png

As you can see, Epiphany doesnt find the internet page, while Opera works just fine... There is no proxy set in gnome network Options. To make it even more strange, Epiphany works wonderfully in KDE

2nd thing i found extremely weird is this:

[carnager@freebox ~]$ gnome-do
sh: kde-config: command not found
sh: kde-config: command not found

this is all that happens... Now i am wondering, why does a pure gnome-application want some KDE executable?
Anyway, i tried this program in KDE - working.... Exactly the same happens with f-spot.

Well, i am clueless and before i simply erase my .gnome2 folder i want to know what causes this, because 2 days ago all worked fine and i havent touched my system at all since then...

alright.. starting from a terminal at least gives me some error message:

carnager@freebox $ epiphany
