Ok thx anyway.

I even tried force stopping sense and letting it reload but that didn't even work. I tried searching apps out to no avail....

It's not a Sense item... the recent apps in the notification bar are part of the Android OS... I believe a reboot is the only way I know to clear that list.

Is it Android or HTC? I may be mistaken but I don't think Samsung Fascinate or LG Ally had it.

I think what people are saying is that the recent apps list is an android thing in general (pressing and holding home button) but HTC explicitly displays it in the notification panel. Whereas other phones you would just hold down home.

With all the apps that do the same thing and with all the home screens and use of folders it is really not needed and I just wish they left it out.... Oh well.

You are right. I would have preferred the toggle strip like Samsung has. I never use the app list on HTC's notification panel as well. I recently installed Visual Task Switcher which serves my purposes better.

Hold down the home button until the screen changes to show the list of recently used apps.
Hold and drag the app, from right to left, that you want to remove off the screen. It will also not show up in the system bar/notification.
