   My menu on my web page has suddenly started to show META (I didn't add it)a box TITLED META, and this has sub menus whch are :
   Site Admin
   Log out
   Valid XHTML
   XFN
   WordPress

   How do I remove this from the front page?

   this is possibly a default output of the sidebar.php code, if you don't use actual widgets in dashboard - appearance - widgets.

   drag a widget of your choice into the sidebar widget ares, and the META should disappear.

   if not, it might help if you can post a link to your site to illustrate the problem.

   if you need to remove this META for specific pages only, try to use a plugin for conditional widgets: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=conditional+widget

   I got the site reloaded to a previous back up from the web hoster, seems OK now.

   there is no hardcoded META section in sidebar.php of your theme;

   however there seem to be two different widget areas - try to change the 'Sidebar Blog' area.

   or possibly try and replace sidebar.php with a fresh copy;

   EDIT: you were faster - well done.

   if your problem is solved, please mark the topic as 'resolved' - thanks.
