If I am unable to get this fixed here soon I may decide to just upgrade to the new version, but I have been really busy lately so I dont really want to upgrade right now if I dont have to.

Gnome should be pretty easy, I haven't used it in a while as well, but if I remember correctly (depending on the distro) there should be something in System Settings or the like. Right clicking on the panel should have worked, but I guess it's disabled.

OR make a new user, log into the new user, find out the plugin names, go to your old user account log in there and use the terminal to initiate the plugins. From previous experience most gui plugins are in /usr/share /usr/local/bin /usr/bin /usr/share/apps(or applications), a quick google search brought up: /usr/lib/gnome-applets so I would assume that you would have some folders with executables there.
