GNOME problem



Somehow, some time ago, an odd thing happened. In the beginning, on a 
fresh install, whenever I typed "startx", thereby running GNOME, it 
would start up with a gnome-terminal up by default, with the working 
directory set to my home directory. A few weeks after install, for no 
reason I can detect, this default working directory changed to /etc. 
This wouldn't be such a bad thing, (cd ~ is easy to type, after all) but 
  /etc now appears to be the default GNOME directory for anything... 
including things like file dialogs. So... where might this setting be 
set and how can I change it? Also, any idea how I may have inadvertantly 
changed it?
