 * Would need to see your menu loop code (probably in header.php) to take a look
   at how the menu is generated.

 * Your code is corrupted slightly as you did not paste between the code tags. Could
   you edit your post to include the code between the code tags please as it is 
   quite unreadable as plain text.

 * Looks like your menu is using the new custom menu feature of WordPress 3.0 so
   just go in there and edit your menu. Looks like the last menu item is not displaying
   any category information so just delete that menu item.

 * When I click on Appearance, Menus everything is grayed out. And there are no 
   custom menus. Sorry, not sure what you mean.

 * OK, from your code, it is using the fall back function primarymenu() in the absence
   of custom menus. I will need to see this function. You can find it in your themes
   functions.php file.

 * Just the primarymenu() function would have done! 🙂
 * OK, you just need to take out the wp_list_categories() line in the primarymenu()
   function.

 * Or just create a custom menu in the Appearance->Menus section.

 * Otto is right, from WordPress 3.0 the best method to handle menus is via the 
   new custom menu feature.
 * wp_list_pagesis still a great function to use, but is only really there as a 
   fall back in case your theme does not support custom menus (you can easily add
   in support yourself without too much hassle).
