In the file .recently-used in your home dir...

If you want not Gnome track your file in the Open Recent Menu, just make this :

Code:
chmod 000 .recently-used


It will do the trick!

Code:

ln -sf /dev/null ~/.recently-used

of course if you'd just like to clear the menu, but still have it functional you can simply delete

~/.recently-used

which will then be recreated from scratch.
