You could edit this file manually from your home directory:

gksudo gedit .recently-used.xbel

Just search for the file name, then delete the entire <bookmark href=...> to </bookmark> tags for the entry you want to remove.

easiest way is remove totem and reinstall. That is the easy way then you are sure it is gone.
