I also had this problem recently and I also had no luck at finding some code
that I could "rip". So I created my own (example):

#header_nav li span { display: none; } [.....] <ul id="header_nav"> <li id="personalise"><a href="/change/" title="Personalise your Homepage"><span>Personalise</span></a></li> <li id="products"><a href="/pricing/" title="Infomation on services"><span>Products</span></a></li> <li id="help"><a href="/help/" title="DIY support"><span>Help</span></a></li> </ul>
#header_nav li span {display: none;}
