right, it does delete it , it shouldn't? what do you suggest instead?

No. The startup procedure for the panel should be listed as a startup service in the startup menu and not connected in any way to the menu item in the panel itself. Simply deleting the menu item should not keep the panel from loading. A menu item should not have that kind of power.
