Disable Message: 'Wireless Network Connection Not Connected'?

Question

Everytime I start my Inspiron 8600, a message pops out from the notofication area: 'Wireless Network Connection Is Not Connected'. How do I get rid of this annoying message every time?   I have no network connection whats-o-ever, no wired and not wireless. I have nothing related to network. I tried all solutions I can think of but to no avail.   This started to happen a few months ago since I upgraded to XP Home SP2.   Thank you for any solutions!   Sam

Right click the wireless nework icon in the System Try and select Disable from the drop down menu. This will disable the wireless network card until you decide you need it, at which point you will need to re-enable it through Control Panel > Network Properties.

Thank you for your reply. I right-clicked on the wireless connection icon, but no such option appears. The only options I get is: 'Change Windows Firewall Settings'; 'Open Network Connections'; 'Repair' and 'View Available Wireless Network'.   Any other solution? Please!
