Applications Menu - Network Category

On desktop systems here, the Applications Menu's Network Category label
has changed recently from 'Network' to 'Internet'. I haven't been able
to find out what did that but I suspect it was one of the Xfce port
upgrades I did about a week ago. I'd like to change the label back to
'Network' because 'Internet' doesn't make any sense in the context of
machines with no Internet connection, where the services to which those
applications connect are local.
Although I've been using Xfce for several years, I have never needed to
mess with its configuration and I can't find this critter. The Xfce help
for the Applications Menu gives no clues at all about labelling of menu
items. The Xfce wiki directs me to the xfce-applications.menu file in
/usr/local/etc/xdg/menus (shows only 'Network') and in ~/.config/menus
(no such directory). Any .desktop files I can find for (e.g. Firefox,
Thunderbird and friends) show their category as 'Network'.
Is anybody, please, able to shed some light on where I might be able to
undo this change? I'm asking here first because I don't know if it's a
port thing or an upstream Xfce thing (or some other application which
has taken the liberty of clobbering Xfce). This is not just 'me' but
other users as well on different machines.
Environment is FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE/i386 (and some 8.2-STABLE/i386) with
X.org 7.5.1 and the following Xfce ports:
