Gnome is a nice interface, but it has its limitations, for serious work
you need the command line, and have to type commands, because gnome
doesn't always have a button to do what you want. 

And coming from a windows world, reinstalling seems liek the right idea,
but it rarely is. You core problem is probably caused by one broken
program, which won't affect the rest of the machine (besides sometimes
even the best programs have a bug and will dump core rarely. Just delete
it and restart it (or better yet send in a bug report))
