    That's the recent programs you've opened. You have a couple of choices in that area. You can either pin items to the start menu (they end up on top) and/or you can show recently opened items there. If you don't want to show any items there, you need to disable showing recently used items.

    Right Click Taskbar > Properties > Start Menu Tab > Uncheck Store & Display Boxes

    To pin an item to the start menu:
    Right Click Shortcut/Item > Pin Item to Start Menu
    OR
    Drag to Start Button, Wait for Start Menu to pop up.

    You can customize the start menu, Start Menu - Customize. Try setting the number of programs to show to zero (or some small number)
