ubuntu weird problems

I've had this problem after like the first three times the computer starts up (after install ubuntu). Ubuntu boots up like normal, I login, then after a login I am presented with about a dozen error messages reporting that it was not able to load certain applets. because of this I cannot see the clock, the task bar, and others.
Another problem I'm experiencing is that certain programs don't work at all. For example if I try opening a text file it would appear to be opening gedit (the default document program) but then nothing happens. Even some setting don't work (power management, etc).
The only thing that I did since installing ubuntu, is install the basic c++ development libraries, which came on the ubuntu CD.
If anyone can help me with this problem I would appreciate it.
