I had the same issue. 
Hidden files shown on start-up.
After hiding them using CTRL-H and restart of nautilus, they where in view again.

I managed to fix this by desecting "show hidden and backup files" in EDIT-PREFERENCES-VIEWS. 
After this was unselected the setting is remembered on restart

Title:
  File manager does not remember "Show hidden files" option turned off

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On the newest Ubuntu (14.04), hidden files are always shown by
  default. If the user unchecks "Show hidden files" -option from the
  "Files" -> "Show" -menu, they will disappear, but will appear again
  when "Files" -menu is displayed again. This never happened on Unity in
  Ubuntu 12.04, and as far as I remember, in old Gnome, too.
