Weird.  Maybe you saved your session with spififity running then
uninstalled the spififity rpm?

If so, log into a virtual console or failsafe xterm as your username,
then run:

sed -i -e 's/spififity/metacity/' ~/.gnome2/session

Alternatively, reinstall the spififity package, log in, press alt-f2 and
then type "metacity --replace"
