You can remove block form customer.xml also for that first off all copy xml into you current theme. I have define the path.

Path: app/design/frontend/default/mytheme/layout/customer.xml

Under customer_account handle.

<customer_account translate="label">
    <reference name="left">
        <remove name="catalog.leftnav"/>
    </reference>
</customer_account>

In you local.xml file of your theme add as follow,

Path: app/design/frontend/default/mytheme/layout/local.xml

<customer_account handle is used for only customer account pages

<layout>
    <customer_account translate="label">
            <reference name="left">
                <remove name="catalog.leftnav"/>
            </reference>
    </customer_account>
</layout>

Flush caches and check.

You can do this by xml

create a local.xml under app/design/frontend/youpackage/youtemplate/layout/ if you left panel category alias name is "alias_name_of_left" then you can do this by

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<layout>
    <default>

        <reference name="left">
        <action method="unsetChild"><name>alias_name_of_left</name></action>
        </reference>
    </default>
</layout>
