Icons

On Windows XP, I have a disconnected Wireless connection which shows up in the System Tray.

I have gone into Network Connections dialog box and elected not to show an icon when it is disconnected, yet it remains visible.

I have gone into the Task bar properties and elected to always hide this icon, but that doesn't remove it from the system tray.

How do I remove it?

Thanks
