I just restarted my computer. Now its acting like i just turned it on. Everything is default like you you turn it on for the first time. My files are there but its weird. Mail and iChat need to be reconfigured....can i do something like a system restore?

Is this the first time you have restarted your Mac since upgrading to 10.4.3? If so, then I had to go through the same thing on my powerbook but not my iMac.

It didn't erase anything, it just takes you through the new user setup which you can just select skip and then be back to normal. Not sure why it happens but others have reported it happening with no real reason yet.
