Sorry, should've mentioned - you'll probably want to use 'gconf-editor' 
to fix things up if this is the case. I'm pretty sure the files are 
safely editable directly, but I tend to use this (very handy) dedicated too.

To my mind, gconf is proof that 'registry' systems can be done at least 
less horribly. A decent editor, a decent structure, meaningful names, 
help text on options... it all makes a big difference.
