theres no system restore but you can restore from a Time Machine backup if you have one but leave that as a last resort.

first try pressing "command-option-D" to see if its just hidden. if that didnt work try going to the CoreServices folder which is inside the System Library and launching the Dock application. if no luck then try a restart.

do you have a Time Machine backup? restart into your install DVD, choose your language and choose Restore backup from the Utilities menu. then restore to a date when you think your Dock was working.

if not ill upload Dock.app for you.
