create an entirely new menu which will automaticallly create a new block. Use this new block in place of the default navigation block.

There should be no create content menu item for people who do not have the permission to create any type of content.

good point. I need to view my site as an anon user more often!

i denied access to authenticated as well as anonymous users to create any content. but still i see the "create content" in the menu.
i tried shifting the parent item as "Administer" instead of "navigation". But it didnt help. pls guide.

are you sure you are viewing it as anon or auth'ed?

This seems to be a bug.

All you have to do, is just RESET "create content" menu item in admin>menus. That's all. If you click edit and make it expanded, it will reappear again for anon users. You have to keep it not expanded, which is of course pain for administrators who want quick access to the sublinks of create content.
