you can remove unwanted buttons by modifying the skin. to remove "my applications" you need to edit "xbmcrootdir"/skin/"skinname"/home.xml
if you remove the "my applications" control, you'll need to change the onup/ondown values of the controls around it to jump to the correct id values.
example: im looking at the mediacenter home.xml file and "my applications" has an id of 2. you'll need to change all onup/ondown/onleft/onright values which point to 2. the control for "my music" has onup set to 2 - it'll need to be changed something else.
also, be aware that removing a control wont change the screen position of the remaining ones. you'll need to alter the posx and posy values of the remaining controls.

thanks, i suspected that it may require modifiying the skins (because i notice some of the skins have completely different layout of the items). i just thought i would ask if there was an easier way first.
