Applications in Gnome 2.4 Crashing

A few days ago, somehow my home partition got filled up to the rim and gnome 2.4 wouldn't load until I deleted a lot of stuff.  Anyway, after freeing up about a gig or so of space, I could finally boot into Gnome 2.4, only problem is the fact that both Epiphany and GnomeICU crash when I try to start them.  Neither crashed before and I tried reinstalling both.  Does anyone have any ideas about what could be going on here?

I think you need a new motherboard.

Try removing the settings directories (probably .gnome*) and running them again.  This means that you'll lose all your settings... but at least they'll run.

...or make a backup of the .gnome*/.gconf* stuff instead of deleting it.  That way if that doesn't fix the problem, you'll still have all your old configs.

mkdir gnome-bak
mv .gnome* .gconf* gnome-bak

Then try logging in again as Xentax suggested.

Backups shmackups.  Real men upload their data and have people mirror it.
