Comment(by Simple_Sid):

 Ok guys i managed to fix the problem, personally anyways. I was using some
 Arabic script in my name btw (يعقوب キ)
 I uninstalled GTK 2.14.6, and then installed 2.12.12, it worked.
 I then uninstalled 2.12.12 and then ran CCleaner. I then proceeded to
 reinstall 2.14.6
 Seemed to fix the problem, ill be sure to get back to you if something
 goes wrong.
