"What application and which of its menu items do this?"

Well, the OS, for one. The feature is called Personalized Menus. The doc says "Personalized Menus keeps the Programs menu clean by hiding items you haven't used recently, while still keeping other programs easily accessible. You can gain access to hidden programs by clicking the down arrow at the bottom of the Programs menu". Similar "features" are provided with other MS products, like Office.

Yetch. Bletch. Yuck. Good for casual users, but death to anyone with decent reflexes and physical memory.
