Can't Remove Start Menu Link

I'm running Windows Vista x32. I'm using the standard menu.

I added a link and now when I right click to try to get to the

contextual menu to "remove item from list", it doesn't display the menu.

It just locks up my entire machine for 60 seconds and does nothing. I

can reorder the item in the menu, but I can't get to the right click

menu to delete it from the list.

Nothing has worked. Tried locating it in the registry and got lost. The

program isn't installed. It's just dnsbench.exe from grc.com, a

standalone exe. I deleted it and tried to remove the shortcut. Nothing.

Tried downloading it again, putting another shortcut on the menu,

deleting the new shortcut and the old. Same thing, locks up.

When I switch to classic menu, it isn't there. I could just use the

classic, but it rearranges my shortcuts and it doesn't have the search

field for immediate use.

So any ideas what could be causing this and how to remove this stupid

link?
