Shane,

That page is in /opt/zendto/templates/main_menu.tpl.
If you just comment out this bit (starts at line 33 in my current 
version of the file):

   <tr>
     <td>{call name=button href="req.php" text=$request_t width="100%"}</td>
     <td class="UD_nav_label">{t escape=no}Ask another person to send 
you some files.{/t}</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
     <td>{call name=button href="pickup.php" text=$pickup_t 
width="100%"}</td>
     <td class="UD_nav_label">{t escape=no}Pick-up (<em>download</em>) a 
file dropped-off for you.{/t}</td>
   </tr>

those buttons will disappear.

If you comment it out by putting {* at the start and *} at the end, the 
templating engine will never even send that HTML to the browsers at all, 
which is nicer than using HTML <!-- --> comments.

Cheers,
Jules.
