The feature you are describing is called the jump list. You can remove the frequently used section from the jump list by changing a hidden preference.

  1. Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
  2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
  3. Locate the preference browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled and double-click on it to change its value to false

If you prefer to turn off the jump lists so that the Recent and Tasks sections do not appear as well, change the preference browser.taskbar.lists.enabled to false.
