Hm,one file stays in /etc/skel/.local/share/applications/
The other one stays in ~/.local/share/applications
once you remove both files it doesn't show up in the whisker menu

This works! Thanks.  ;)

Thanks!  It would have taken me quite a while to find .desktop files in /etc/skel/.

I also have a problem removing menu items.  In Synaptic, I removed Mumble and Leafpad, but entries for them still appear on the Whisker Menu and on the Xfce standard menu.  The entries do not appear in MenuLibre or in Alacarte, so I can't remove them using a menu editor.  Their .desktop files are no longer in /usr/share/applications, so I don't know where they are lurking.  I tried reinstalling both applications and removing them again using Remove Completely in Synaptic, but they still show up on the Whisker Menu and the Xfce menu, without their icons.  Does anyone have any idea where else I need to look to find the files from which the menus are creating these entries, or how else to remove them?  Thanks.

Colin,
Not sure if you want to permanently delete LibreOffice but if you do then uninstalling it in Synaptic Package Manager should do the trick.
