I have found a lot of posts asking this question but I haven't found any answers that work for my website.

I would like to remove the "ACCOUNT" link at the top-right corner of the page.
I am running Magento 1.9.2.1 and using the RWD theme.

I have tried removing the link in a local.xml file:


----------


    <default>
         <reference name="top.links">
             <action method="removeLinkByUrl"><url helper="customer/getAccountUrl"/></action>
         </reference> 
    </default>


----------


I have tried disabling all the modules that Amit recommends here: http://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/65373/how-to-remove-account-and-cart-from-website

I'm able to change the wording by using the Translate Inline tool but I can't remove it entirely (unless I switch to the default theme, it's not displayed then).

How do I remove the link?
