How to remove greater than signs in content

Hi,

I am struggling with this one for quite a while now.

In the sidebar I have links to my pages that are shown in an unordered list. For some reason >> is added before each list-item. The result of this is that each list-item starts with a bullet, then >> and then the content.

Does anyone know how I can remove >>? I thought I could remove it in the post-template.php file in

function the_content($more_link_text = null, $stripteaser = 0, $more_file = '') {
	$content = get_the_content($more_link_text, $stripteaser, $more_file);
	$content = apply_filters('the_content', $content);
	$content = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $content);
	echo $content;
}

by changing the code$content = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $content);

into

$content = str_replace(']]>', '', $content);

But that doesn’t work.

Thanks in advance!
