how do i remove the standard wm?

i am using xfce (2gb ram, 3.72ghz core2duo e6320) and unfortunately the old wm that came with macpup is still there and cluttering the menu up with its own apps

is there a way i can remove it, or put all of those shortcuts into a submenu so that they are not all in the way of the xfce ones?
