I made the mistake of installing e16 window manager from the synaptic. I logged out and logged into e16 for a session. I logged out and logged back into gnome but it seemed gnome and e16 were both running at the same time. I couldn't figure out what had gone wrong so I killed X and ran
"sudo apt-get remove e16" when I logged back in all the windows had no bar at the top.

It says ylmf os but it's just ubuntu 10.4 with a theme installed by default. I tried restarting the computer but it makes no difference.

Some good new. I was able to create a new user. The new user does not have the problem. Which means it's the gnome settings for my user. I am going to try and find which files I have to delete to get things back to normal.

It's ok now. YAY. Solved it. Deleted ~/.gconf & ~/.gconfd & ~/.gnome & ~/.gnome2
Hope this helps someone in the future. Also I still don't know what to call that bar.
