When Editing Footers, you can always clean out all the text as a first resort. In the Edit Header/Footer scenario, you should be able to click on the Outline Lines themselves to Delete the entire Box. Click on one of the lines that makes up the Old Header/Footer Box, and the Box should change. I believe it changes to dotted-lines all around the entire box, then just hit the 'Delete' key on your keyboard.

Good Luck!
